Overview

Burkina-Faso

With wildlife suitable for safaris, towns and villages, and a particularly hospitable population consisting of numerous ethnic groups, Burkina-Faso forms part of authentic Africa, with Mali, Niger, Benin, Togo, Ghana, and the Ivory Coast, as neighbours. Independent in 1960, Upper Volga became Burkina-Faso in 1984. Conditioned by the cultural events that occur all year round, the country awards a large place to art and live traditions, as shown in the richness of their craftwork and the diversity of the masks made there.

pros

  •  The country is politically stable and secure.
  •  The people are very hospitable.

cons

  •  There is no seaside.
  •  Outside Ouagadougou and Bobo-Dioulasso, the hotel infrastructures are quite basic, so tourists seeking luxury should avoid it!
