Reviews for Ivory Coast discovery tour
Marina Petronoti review 22 Mar 2025
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
I enjoyed the music and dances, walking around in markets and certain villages, taking photos (when permitted to do so), meeting villagers - though I would also like to talk with them with a guide's help.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
see 1.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
No, I don't think it did. Though we certainly left no garbage behind us, we did not have the opportunity to talk with local people (other than guide and driver) and exchange views about how they see tourists, what they expect from us (other than money), explain why we travel in remote areas of the country etc.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
Very goodRead the operator's response here:
Thank you for the review and for rating the trip as very good. The tour uses locally owned accommodation, drivers and guides, and we try and keep as much of your spend in the local economy. With these type of tours, it is important to follow the guides advice regarding photos and respecting the locals wishes, so it is not always possible to interact as fully as you may like.
Holiday Reviews
You can trust Responsible Travel reviews because, unlike many other schemes, reviews can ONLY be written by people who we have verified have been on the holidays. In addition, we don't run these holidays ourselves - our only interest is giving you the best independent advice.
