5.00This was a very pleasant trip at first to Grand Bassam that enriched my knowledge of the French colonial time to the old capital of Ivory Coast. Marcel was excellent tried her best to inform me about the history of this city . It’s a must if ever visited Abidjan. Afterwords the trip continued back to Abidjan where I had my lunch at a Lebanese restaurant called Marouch . It was excellent then I visited the rest of the city main attractions. Unfortunately the cathedral was closed and so was Cecil Fakiury gallery because it was Sunday. Anyway the guide and the car was excellent.
Wonderful day tour
