Discover Ivory Coast
Achieving its independence, a handful of decades ago, Ivory Coast is a true melting pot of tribal diversity – 78 different languages are spoken by its myriad of tribal groups and the rise and fall of centuries of invading powers and localised dominions has left an unbroken and culturally rich heritage still remarkably intact.
The mark of colonialism remains firmly on the coast with decaying grand edifices gazing out across rugged impenetrable shores which kept the impact of Europeans to a relative minimum. Within the sub-Saharan interior, villages and ethnic groups are scattered far and wide, offering the outsider wonderful glimpses into their vibrant arts, architecture, and customs.

Best Time to Visit
The best time to visit West Africa is during the northern hemisphere winter. The months of October through to April are not significantly hotter or cooler than other times of the year, but they are a great deal more comfortable since humidity levels are lower.
