Travel in Togo with Intrepid

Flag
Despite its unruly past, Togo has been charming travellers searching for West African paradise for many years. It’s beautiful, quirky, chilled out and full of diverse cultures. There are perfect beaches, butterfly-filled mountains, charming colonial towns and fishing villages where voodoo is part of everyday life. Explore fetish markets, paddle a pirogue, eat yams and get into the Togolese way of life.

Top 5 Togo Experiences

  1. Going Voodoo: Oh Togoville; the voodoo, that you do so well. This is one of voodoo’s cultural centres and a walk through the town’s streets will reveal shrines and fetishes used in everyday life.
  2. Butterfly Safari: Hidden away in Togo’s highlands is Mont Klouto - home to dense forest, cascading streams, waterfalls and over five hundred different species of butterflies. Take a safari through the forest with a naturalist guide to see them in all their glory.
  3. Paddling a Pirogue: When in Togo, travel like the Togolese. Join the fishermen on the lake and be paddled in a dugout canoe (pirogue) from Agbodrafo to Togoville.
  4. Eating Yams: They’re West Africa’s favourite food and nowhere does them quite like the Togolese. Go yam crazy with the beautifully named fufu - yam mashed in a nut sauce.
  5. Exploring Lake Togo: This is where the locals come to relax. There are plenty of water sports to try or hitch a ride with a fisherman to explore the lake’s villages.
