Benin has a little bit for everybody! There are beautiful beaches in the south, Pendjari Safari park in the North, historical slave trade remnants and palaces of the Abomey Kings of the past.

Benin is an uncommon family travel destination. Actually, it's an uncommon travel destination in general! Travel here isn't easy, but with most things that are difficult, the reward is worth the effort.

We were often the only guests at our accommodation, and at times the only tourists at an entire site! I don't expect tourism to increase drastically in the near future, but I also don't think it'll remain as untouched forever. If you love off the beaten path destinations, I highly recommend a trip to Benin!
