Overview

Guinea-Bissau

Bordered by the Atlantic Ocean, Guinea-Bissau is a small territory of West Africa, sharing borders with Senegal and Guinea. Independent since 1974, this former Portuguese colony is multi-ethnic, authentic, and untouched by any sort of tourism. However, the beauty of the Bijagos archipelago, divided in about sixty islands, offers the country a great and attractive potential. The rest of the country is divided between mangrove and savannah.

pros

  •  Poeple are hospitable and friendly.

cons

  •  It is quite difficult to move around the country, besides along river routes.
  •  Tourist infrastructures are practically non-existent.
