Departure
Côte d'Ivoire — the Ivory Coast — is West Africa's economic powerhouse and one of its most culturally vibrant nations. Abidjan is the continent's most dynamic French-speaking city: a skyline of towers rising from lagoons, a city of extraordinary food, music, and art that pulses with the energy of 6 million people.
Grand-Bassam, the former colonial capital, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site — a hauntingly beautiful town of faded French colonial architecture on a peninsula between the ocean and a lagoon. Comö National Park is one of West Africa's last great rainforest wildlife sanctuaries, home to chimpanzees, forest elephants, and over 400 bird species. Verified local Ambassadors guide every step.
Côte d'Ivoire is home to over 60 ethnic groups, with the Akan peoples — including the Baoulé and Agni — being the largest. The country is famous for its extraordinary textile traditions, particularly the kente-like woven fabrics of the Baoulé, and for its vibrant music scene that gave the world coupé-décalé and zouglou. Abidjan's Treichville district is one of West Africa's greatest music and nightlife destinations.
