Visas Most travellers planning to visit Benin, Togo, and Ghana will need to obtain a visa before their travel. It is important to note that depending on the specific requirements of the embassy you apply at, you may also need an invitation letter. We are here to assist you with providing the necessary invitation letter if required. However, visa regulations are subject to change, and it is advised that you contact your nearest embassy for the most current and accurate information. Health and vaccinations We are not medically qualified and cannot provide advice on recommended vaccinations. It is important to consult your doctor or nearest health professional for personalized recommendations based on your specific health condition and travel plans. They will be able to assess your individual needs and provide guidance on necessary vaccinations to protect against potential health risks at your destination. Additionally, for further information and guidance on vaccinations, you can visit the website www.fitfortravel.nhs.uk. Remember, it is always better to be proactive and prioritize your health and well-being while traveling. A Yellow Fever vaccination certificate is required for entry to Benin, Togo and Ghana and you must bring this with you. Insurance It is a condition of joining our tours that you have suitable travel insurance in place, and we cannot accept travellers without insurance. All policies differ in terms of what they will cover, but as a minimum, you need medical and health cover which will cover you for the whole time that you are away. Most policies will also include cancellation cover, which will cover you if an unforeseen circumstance obliges you to cancel your trip. We recommend that you obtain your insurance as soon as you book your trip. Please note that government travel warnings often affect the validity of your travel insurance, and you should check this with your insurance company. Money The local currency in Ghana is the cedi, while in Togo and Benin it is the West African CFA, a currency that is shared with many other countries in the region. It is not however, the same as the Central African CFA, and the two are not interchangeable. It is best to bring Euros for exchange purposes as the CFA is not obtainable outside of the region. It’s not difficult to change money here, either at banks or the hotels and your guide can assist with this. There are also an increasing number of ATMs in larger towns. However, these are not always reliable and so it is best to think of them as a back up rather than a main means of obtaining money. Credit cards are accepted in larger hotels and better restaurants (usually in larger cities only) but are not commonly accepted elsewhere. You should also be aware that credit card fraud is not uncommon in the region and so should you choose to use one, do bear this in mind. Local conditions When travelling to some of the destinations we offer you need to bear in mind that things won’t always work here as we’re used to them working at home. Travelling in underdeveloped and untouristed destinations requires both patience and a sense of humour. There may be problems with infrastructure, attitudes may be different, and maintenance may not be as high a standard as we would always like, but this is very much part and parcel of travelling in such a place. We aim to resolve any issues as quickly as possible, and thank you for your patience. Travel advice We keep a very close eye on the travel advice issued by the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office so that we can keep you up to date with any warnings. At the time of writing the FCO does not advise against travel to any parts of Benin, Togo or Ghana that we visit. This relates to advice from the British government – other nationalities need to check the stance of their own governemments. Please note that the information contained above is highly susceptible to change, and while we endeavour to keep up to date we recommend that you use this as a guide only. Should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Updated July 2023
