Togo, Africa Travel Tours & Trips

Small is beautiful. Tiny Togo is a little treat for visitors to West Africa, a country infused with rich cultures, charming locals and fascinating adventures. Lomé’s fetish market, for example, is a cauldron of bizarre sights, where the raw materials for voodoo’s traditional medicines are on sale. Think monkey skulls and snake skins – a tour here is an endlessly arresting, utterly alien experience. Lake Togo lies nearby, and a skim across its shallow waters to Togoville is a more serene pleasure, a chance to gain further insights into Togo’s easygoing, seductive everyday life of fishing and markets, conversation and culture.
