Togo Tours and Trips

It was a great trip. Full on, packed with activities and a good group of people. Our guide was knowledgeable and very patient with all the bureaucracy. Lots of exposure to local people and customs. Probably not for first timers to Africa.

What an adventure! This holiday is not for the faint hearted as it really is a full on tour but came away feeling like I had seen and experienced so much that other people would not! We experienced so many varied masked dances and genuine experiences that words cannot describe…. Our guides were incredible and thoughtful as well as great advocates for West Africa and made me want to visit other countries. As long as you go with an open mind and don’t expect the hotels to be of a European standard you will love this tour.

The guides were fantastic. The hotels were disappointing. The Hotel Awale Plage was really disappointing. The staff were rude and didn't understand simple instructions even when spoken to in French. The service was slow at the best. The shower was cold . The location was good. The other hotels were comfortable but I never got a hot shower. I enjoyed Ganvie and the hotel was better than I expected. The guides were great. They sorted out any problems we had and they looked after us exceptionally well.

It was a great trip and the leaders really looked after us well. They were knowledgeable and answered all our questions. The visit to Ganvie was exceptional! The only downside was that in a few places there was no hot water which after long days was disappointing. Watching the different mask dances was fscinating and I felt we had a real insight into local beliefs and culture

This is a very nice tour. We visited some really isolated communities that you would not be able to find on your own. There are long drives but it’s worth it because you see a lot. The accommodation is basic most of the time but this is because the countries are so poor. You will need to shift your mindset and enjoy seeing very extreme and extraordinary practices like fire eating men and amazing mask dance performances. The guides were excellent. Always there to help out and genuinely interested in making the trip worthwhile. Thank you for an amazing experience.

An interesting trip but recommended for experienced travelers, not for first time visitors to Africa. One must go with a lot of patience as delays are routine such as border crossings and meals being served in a timely manner. Some days had a bit too much free time and others were a lot of driving. The Voodoo festival was good but personally I found the local visits and performances set up for our group to be as good and much more intimate. Perhaps more explanations could be provided for the dances.
