Responsible Travel

People describe the West African region in so many adjectives, and we find it hard to pick a specific one. We can say that it is a unique area with about 16 countries. Each of them has impressive features.

English and French are the significant languages in some West African countries. Irrespective of the West Africa country you are visiting, you are sure to have a fantastic time. Although most of these countries are not fully developed, they have a lot to offer.

These countries may slightly differ in terms of their culture. However, the ‘hustle’ spirit is familiar in all areas. It is the zeal to engage in trade and businesses, basically indulging in activities that will yield returns. Being a responsible traveler in West Africa entails patronizing these businesses.


Air Quality and Pollution

It always comes in handy when you know the air quality in an area before visiting. If it is excellent, you are sure of not encountering any health-related issues. If the air quality is low, you need to prepare. You cannot get ready if you have no idea.

When you decide to visit West Africa, it is best to keep in mind that they do not have excellent air quality. The air quality in all West African countries is low.

It is as a result of the different activities they do. It could be from their industries or car fumes and much more.

Respect the Culture

We cannot overestimate the importance of being respectful when you are visiting a new place. It comes in handy as being respectful will help you out in many situations. We know that you do not want to trigger any of the locals or be in their bad books.

It is important to note that West Africans are religious people. You are sure to notice different religious practices in this area. Thus, you have to be respectful and not talk down on any of these religions.

They often see pointing as rude. Thus, it will be best if you do not point to any individual when visiting any of the countries. It is best to use your words than pointing fingers.

These people are often caring and welcoming, but you will only see it when you accord them due respect.

What matters is that they are not hard to local. You will get nothing short of friendliness at these places. It is either the locals will help you with your challenges, or the staff will come to your rescue. Many tourists usually find it challenging to choose an option from the menu.

It comes in handy that these places put in extra effort in the preparation of their meals. After all, they do not want foreigners to have negative reviews.

There are sometimes issues when it concerns foreigners eating in a new place. We see that not everyone has the same food preference. We are sure that you are aware that some people identify as vegans and vegetarians. These people sometimes find it hard to find a restaurant that caters to their needs.

We would not say that it is always possible to find a vegan restaurant in all West African countries. However, there are high chances that regular restaurants will have vegetarian options. Thus, you do not need to worry.

If you are experiencing difficulty trying to get a vegan restaurant in any West African country you should ask the locals. They are in the position to direct you to a place that will attend to your eating preferences.

There are also some foods that you can get on the streets. We would say that these are easy and simple meals. Typically, you can identify them as snacks.

Foreigners are usually curious to know their available options when it concerns street foods in West Africa. There are typically many options.

In Nigeria, you can get Suya or Akara. Suya is meat grilled with special spices on a fire, while akara is a bean product fried and sold on the street. They are both enjoyable and delicious options.

You can get Poulet Yassa in Senegal. It is meat from chicken legs cooked overnight in a unique way. We would not be surprised if you learn how to make it before leaving Senegal.

Ghana has Kelewele as a part of its street foods. It is a form of fried plantain with spices.

We hope that you do not expect less when it comes to drinks in the region. There are also different varieties of beverages in West Africa.

There are no restrictions on the type of drinks you can get in this region. It can be alcoholic or non-alcoholic.

For anyone visiting West Africa, the first drink we would recommend is palm wine. You can find it in most West African countries. It adds to your holiday experience. One should not hear that you visited West Africa and left without taking this drink.

Many other options are ranging from beer to wine to spirit, rum, and much more.

Asaana is a Ghanaian drink of fermented corn and caramel sugar. We hope that you try it on your visit to Ghana.


Tap-water

It is only fair that we also talk about tap water in West Africa. After all, we have mentioned the different types of foods and drinks. One cannot stay without drinking water.

Since we are also concerned about your health, we have to state if it is safe to drink tap water in West Africa. It would be best to not have any health complications.

When visiting West Africa, we advise that you do not drink tap water. This water may be clean in some places, but most areas have unclean and non-portable water.

To save you the stress of determining if the water you are about to drink is safe, it is best to stick to buying bottled water.


Activities

We say that you are in luck if you are in a West African country with water bodies. It is because you get to engage in water activities easily. If there are no water bodies in a place, the activities will not be possible.

Fishing and kayaking are water activities that happen in West Africa. Understandably, many people do not know about this. Once you are in such a country, you will see that the locals engage in fishing and kayaking.

Through this, you get to have fun and probably make new friends. There is a certain level of happiness that comes in when you are fishing or kayaking.

We know that you will love the experience, especially if you engage in it with the locals. They are always a safe and best bet.

If you do not want to engage in water activities, you can also find some activities that do not require water bodies. One of them is engaging in yoga.

We cannot say that it is common in West Africa as you will not see many yoga studios in West African countries. The concept of having a yoga studio is sometimes strange to the people.

However, you will see that many people engage in yoga. They either do it at home or a fitness center.

You can dialogue with the locals and link up with people who share an interest in yoga. This way, you will have fun with them while engaging in the activity. We can all agree that many benefits come with engaging in yoga.


Accommodation

You should figure out where you would stay before going to any West African country. Doing this will help eliminate stress during your holiday.

One can be hyped up to visit a place, but the excitement will go down the drain when complications concerning accommodation arise. It can be frustrating, and we do not want you to go through such an experience.

There are usually different accommodation types. Thus, you have to check for the ones available in the region you are visiting. It also depends on the exact country in that region. However, knowing this information will also help you plan your accommodation budget.

We do not want a case of you traveling with an accommodation budget that is less than the norm in that region.


Green Hotels

In some places, you can see green hotels. These are eco-friendly hotels and one of the top-recommended options for any tourist. This is because staying in an eco-friendly hotel helps you to protect the environment of the country.

You can see green hotels in some West African countries. We cannot start highlighting all the green hotels in this region. If you love to stay in a green hotel, it is best to check that it is available in the exact West African country you are visiting.

Those going to Nigeria or Ghana would not have any challenge as these countries have green hotels. Lou Moon Resort in Ghana and Eko Hotel in Nigeria are examples of green hotels in these countries. Thus, we can say that you are covered in these countries.


Hostels and Guest Houses

We do not think that there is any West African country that you will not find a guesthouse. Many of these countries also have hostels as a part of their accommodation options. Thus, we are not wrong to include hostels and guesthouses as a part of the available accommodation options in West Africa.

We cannot start highlighting all the hostels and guesthouses in this region due to the long list. However, you are sure to find one.

If you do not plan to spend much on accommodation when traveling, you can stay in any of these options. You can either get a single room or a dorm. Even though you might share some of the amenities, it will not compromise your comfort. Thus, there should be no reservations about this option.


Apartments

Another popular accommodation option in West Africa is to stay in an apartment. Many people feel this is a high-class option, and we share their sentiments to a large extent. It will be wrong for us not to mention that staying in an apartment is sometimes more expensive than other accommodation options.

However, you have many amenities that will ensure your comfort. By staying in an apartment, you get a feel of home. Due to the comfort you will experience, you will settle fine into the area, and you may sometimes not want your holiday or visit to end.

It is easy to find an apartment in any West African country you are visiting. Due to the numerous apartments in these countries, we are sure you will not have any difficulty.


Couchsurfing

In some places, there is also the option of Couchsurfing when you are visiting. It is a type of accommodation option that entails having a free stay in the region. Typically, there is a Couchsurfing website where you can check for locals in the country you are visiting who are willing to host you in their homes.

We cannot say that it is a feasible option in West Africa as many of them are skeptical about having strangers in their homes. The locals of West Africa are friendly, warm, and welcoming. But they draw the line when it comes to opening up their homes to foreigners.

Many reasons contribute to this. It could be that they do not want to be responsible if anything ill happens to you, or they do not want anyone in their personal space. Thus, it would be best if you do not have high hopes for this option.


Camping

Amongst the numerous things we can talk about concerning West Africa, it will be wrong for us to fail to mention camping.

Those who have gone camping in this region will testify that it is always a pleasant experience. You can never have the same experience when you go camping in West Africa. It will always be different and unique.

All West African countries have excellent areas that are suitable for camping. Understandably, it will be hard for a foreigner to figure out these areas. It is why being friends with the locals will come in handy.

It is either they suggest the best location for you, or they help you link up with fellow campers. You are sure to have a splendid time and connect with nature and the environment when camping in West Africa.

Getting There and Moving Around

From everything we have said about West Africa, we know that you will be thrilled at the thought of visiting this area. However, it will be wrong to pack your bags, saying that you are going to this region when you do not know how to get there.

It could be that you have a specific way of movement in your mind. What if it does not go from your current location to West Africa? These are factors to consider before saying you are visiting the region.

It always comes in handy when you know how to get there. We will help with this information to assist those visiting West Africa. It is a piece of important information that every foreigner should know before leaving their home city.

Once you get to West Africa, you also have to deal with knowing how to move around. We do not expect that you will be in one place throughout your stay in the region. After all, you will want to visit the various tourist attractions in the country you are visiting.

Knowing how to move around is essential as you do not want to be stranded or stuck to only your accommodation. When you know the right way of moving around in the region, getting missing is lesser.

We want you to have a stress-free journey, and one way of accomplishing this is by knowing how to move around correctly. We will state some of the ways for those visiting West Africa, and you can also have discussions about it with the locals.

There is the option of walking when you are in West Africa as a way of moving around. Some people may argue that this is impossible in big countries like Senegal, Nigeria, and Ghana.

Understandably, you will need to cover longer distances when walking around in such places. However, you can walk around in smaller countries.

Sometimes, you may be lucky to see that the visiting places are close to each other. Thus, the idea of walking around does not seem impossible. It will come in handy if you have a camera when walking around in these countries. It is because many sights will get your attention, and you may want to snap them for memories. However, it is important to ensure that the locals are not in the snap cut or take permission before snapping them. Else, they will take it as being disrespectful.

There is also the option of using a bicycle to move around when you are in West Africa. However, it is also essential to know that the roads in Western African countries are not perfect. Thus, it would help if you are careful when cycling around with a bicycle.

Using a bicycle is not out of place as you can see many people doing the same thing. You can get a bike from a rental store or buy one. There are no laws that govern riding a bicycle in this region.

Drivers in West Africa can be rough, so you have to attentive when riding on the roads. However, it is a feasible means of moving from one point to another. Thus, it is best always to have it in mind.

You can also use electronic vehicles like a scooter when moving around in West Africa. However, it is not feasible in all West African countries.

Due to the bad roads and rough drivers, you might find it challenging to use a scooter in this region. If you do not understand people’s driving behavior in this region, it is best not to use a scooter as we do not want you to have any mishaps while moving around.

You can stick to other means of transport to move around. However, if you feel that you can ride a scooter, you can get one from the stores. However, we advise that you also get a helmet and other essentials to ensure your safety due to the bad roads.


Air

It is not out of place to imagine that you can use air to get into West Africa. Most of its countries have international airports. If you are traveling to Ghana, Senegal, Nigeria, or Côte d’Ivoire, we are sure that you can get a flight irrespective of your present location.

We see that many people love to use air when traveling as it is a fast means of transport. Thus, it is a viable option.

If you are traveling to a West African country that does not have flights coming in from your present location, you can stop at any of the above countries before proceeding to your desired destination.

We are sure that you will have a stress-free journey if you use air.

There is also the option of using air to move around, especially if you are going between countries in West Africa. We can say you can connect to any West African country via air if you are already in the region.

Thus, you are not restricted to only one country if you are in this region. You can use the opportunity to visit many places as air is fast, so you will not have any delays, and you can see many places in a short time.

However, you will need to have a high budget when traveling as flight fares are usually expensive, and we do not want you to run out of money during your trip. Now, you know that you can also use air to move around in West Africa.


Bus

There is also the option of using a bus when you are going to West Africa. However, you can only do this if you are within Africa. There are no connecting roads to West Africa from other continents.

Most African highways have connecting links with West African countries. Using a bus to West Africa is feasible, but it might take long hours or days. You will also have multiple stops and checks at the border. It is why many people do not like using this option because of the delay.

However, if you love to see the landmarks on the way or have a road trip experience, it is possible. It is best always to remember that you can use a bus to get into West Africa.

Can you use a bus to move around when you are in West Africa? Yes, it is possible!

Most of the countries and cities in West Africa have buses for movement. It is easy to figure out how to pay for these buses. Most times, all you have to do is stand by the roadside, and you can get on these buses.

You might have challenges like encountering traffic when you use buses to move around in West Africa. However, it is one of those things that you have to deal with due to the bad roads and many people moving around.

You can also use a bus to move from one West African country to another. Using a bus is a way of moving around in West Africa.


Train

We would not say that it is possible to use a train to get into West Africa as most of the countries do not have railways that connect to other places.

You may see railways within the country, but they do not have links with other places. Thus, it is safe to say that you can instead use trains as a means of moving from one point to another within the country.

An example of such a place in West Africa is Nigeria.


Hitchhiking

Although the locals of West Africa love when foreigners visit their country, they are usually cautious. Thus, we also cannot say that hitchhiking is feasible in this region.

Hitchhiking is a way of getting a free ride. It could be by standing on the roadside and flagging down vehicles, discussing with the drivers, and trying to get a free ride to your destination.

It is not a common habit in West Africa as these drivers do not want to be indicted if things go south.


Others

You can also use water bodies to get into some places in West Africa. However, we advise that you do not always depend or bank on this option.

You can sometimes get disappointed as you may hear that the boats are not available. Using water bodies in traveling can be exciting, but it does not always happen.

There is also the issue of not getting a boat from your current location to West Africa. Thus, we advise that foreigners do not always focus on this option.


Sustainable Shopping

As a foreigner, you can also engage in activities that help to better the region you are visiting. A way of doing this is to engage in sustainable shopping.

Typically, foreigners love to shop. Thus, why not do it the right way? Why not patronize the locals? There is no exception to what you can buy from the locals. We are sure that you will get something that you love.

Engaging in sustainable shopping contributes to the economy of that region.

You can engage in sustainable shopping by visiting the food markets in the country you are visiting. There is no how you would not see a food market in any of the nations.

At such markets, you get to see local ingredients used in the preparation of their traditional meals. You can also purchase other items. Allow us to tell you that shopping at a food market can be fun. We urge that you do not miss out on this experience.

There is also the option of buying things from a second-hand store. Since the idea is to push the sales of the locals, you can buy things that they do not need anymore.

Buying things from a second-hand store does not mean that you are purchasing items of local quality. The sellers ensure to do a routine check on these items before selling them. There is an array of things you can get from second-hand stores like clothes, books, furniture, and much more.

When you think of sustainable shopping in West Africa, we want you to cast your mind back to their ‘hustling’ spirit. With this, you can be sure that the people are innovative. This innovation reflects in their fashion styles.

You see that designers now use recyclable items to produce clothes. These are called eco-fashion. Buying these clothes is also a form of sustainable shopping. We are sure that you will love the design, so do not hesitate to purchase them.


Recycling

If we are to rank the West African region in recycling, we will give them a fair mark. We see that they put effort into recycling, but not all the locals key into it.

You can see signs for people to dispose of recyclable items, and there are recycling companies in the West African countries.

However, some of the locals do not take it seriously. Thus, we cannot say that recycling is waxing strong in West Africa.


Waste

We also cannot say that West Africa ranks high in terms of waste management. Although one can see several agencies and companies in charge of waste management in West African countries, one can still see dirt around.

Cleanliness is not a top feature when you want to describe West African countries. We would recommend that they have more enlightenment programs for citizens on why they have to be serious about waste management.

The government should also enforce strict laws on defaulters of waste management laws. As a foreigner, you can help in enlightening people and doing the right thing.


Work and Study Abroad

Suppose you decide that you desire to school in any West African country. In such a case, we know that you will have many questions.

Amongst the numerous questions we get from foreigners intending to school in West Africa, we see people asking if they can work while schooling in this region.

Nothing is stopping you from working while schooling. It is left to you to ensure that you balance both parts of your life as you do not want one to slack for the other.


Exchange Student

There is also the issue of those who intend to carry out exchange programs in any school in West Africa. It is possible to be an exchange student in this region.

We see many international students in West Africa. If you intend to be one, check that your school offers exchange programs with any university or college in West Africa. From there, you can start the process.

We assure you that you will love schooling in West Africa.


Au Pair

When some people cannot get jobs in a place, they go to the au pair website. The idea here is that you input your location and see a pop-up of available jobs.

These are usually domesticated jobs like being a nanny or house-keeper. We cannot say that the au pair system is popular in West Africa. Many people do not know about the website.

It is easier to get such jobs through word of mouth than to depend on the au pair website.


Volunteering

Volunteering is something that people can do in different regions, and West Africa is not an exception.

You will see many available sectors that you can choose from to become a volunteer. What matters is that you have expertise in that area.

You can be a volunteer in the West Africa region. We urge that you ensure to put in effort so your impact can be felt. There is a need that your volunteering brings about change in that region.
