Benin
The long, thin West African country of Benin has a fascinating history closely linked to the slave trade, and a wealth of tribal culture, with fetish markets and traditional voodoo beliefs still widespread. Benin was formerly known as Dahomey, and you can see the royal palaces of Abomey, the former capital, explore the distinctive West African savannah, the stilt village of Ganvie and the old slave port of Ouidah, famed for its python temple. An adventure holiday in Benin will give you a fascinating glimpse of Africa that most visitors to the continent never see.
