Are you planning a tour in West Africa ? Côte d'Ivoire is a country you may definately want to visit ! It is always a pleasure for me to show this beautiful country to visitors and to provide them with the unique experience of getting to know this part of Western Africa. I can guide you around our beautiful city of Abidjan either by foot or by car for an exciting tour of the city. If you love adventures, you may love a tour to our beautiful natural parks and beaches. We can also take you to Yamoussoukro to visit our basilica, the world's tallest Catholic building. You might want to enjoy a tour of the ruins of our colonial town of Grand-Bassam, a UNESCO World Heritage. Why not buy hand-made souvenirs, enjoy several ivoirian delicacies and watch or dance to the rythm of our traditional drums. My academic qualifications include a Masters equivalent in Economics and Political Science from the London School of Economics and US Department Of State (DOS) certificates in Accounting, Legal and Financial courses. I also hold a degree (BTS) in Bilingual Secretarial course. I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside of the historical monuments.

On this tour, I take you outside Abidjan to visit a coastal city that is filled to the brim with French colonial charm and a city that was a nation's capital at the time, I am taking you to visit UNESCO World Heritage Site, Grand-Bassan. What was once the most important port, the economic center of the Ivory Coast where history testifies of the complexity of social relations between Europeans and Africans today it is the seaside town decorated with palm lines beach stretching along the Atlantic coast and bringing the calming sounds of the ocean waves to sandy beaches all around. We are going to explore this well-preserved city, a showcase of well-preserved colonial architecture, a place of vibrant culture, and lively colorful streets and I am taking you to visit Tour the Musée du Costume before spending several hours relaxing on Grand Bassam's finest beach. I really love this place and I hope that my passion and love for this place will pass on to you too.
