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.

You are planning to visit Abidjan? Great !!!! Whether you come for business or private, you must take this opportunity to meet Abidjan in person, from the eyes of the locals. My tour will give you the opportunity to discover the real Abidjan, the largest city of Ivory Coast and the center of its economic activity and a place of happy people and positive energy. This tour will make you discover the architecture of Abidjan mixed with the scents of coconut and palm oil. The warmth of Ivory's welcome and the different places with people selling street food and a vibrant environment will leave you with wonderful memories. During the tour there is the possibility of tasting local delicacies such as Attieké. We will have fun walking Abidjan together! Join me for a fun tour of my hometown.
We had a very nice tour with Emily Kiki - she was very flexible regarding what we wanted to see and very patient with the delays associated with our cruise ship being late - I would whole-heartedly recommend Emily Kiki for other tourists. Frank & Linda Jamieson
Emily was the highlight of our trip! She is incredibly knowledgable and goes above and beyond. We loved our time with Emily and recommend her to anyone who wants to get to know the city.
We enjoyed our tour guide Emily very much. She was flexible in adjusting a tour for us in Abidjan and Grand-Bassam to fit our changing port schedule. She has delightful personality and loves what she is doing! She was very knowledgeable on all areas of the tour. We really appreciated a suggestion to visit a local village which made cassava and it was very interesting to see. We encountered unexpected traffic delays and she worked with our excellent driver to get us back safely to our ship on time.
Emily is a wonderful, knowledgeable tour guide. She's also very considerate. Our ship docked in a different position than usual, far away from the port entrance. The port had difficulty coordinating the shuttle buses. When Emily realized that we would be delayed by hours to get to our meeting point, she found a port authority car to drive right up to our ship and "rescued" us! She's amazing! We continued on for an excellent tour of Grand Basam and sights! We highly recommend Emily!
