Village lacustre de Ganvié
Travel agency
👍👍 Here we are in the lake village of Ganvie in the municipality of Abomey-Calavi. We are proud to say that it is the Venice of Africa even if we do not have the same infrastructure as Venise. It is a place that owes its fame to the history related to the tribal war in Dahomey, now Benin. Come to visit...

L'Imprévu
Restaurant
👍👍 I like the ambience and decor. Staff really really took his time to provide helpful information; I’d guess partly because I don’t speak a lot of French and majorly because he’s indeed polite. I tried the prawns (Gambas) and plantain. It was so well done! Listen, it’s top-tier. You should try it out!...
