Walking tour of Grand Bassam - My husband and I booked the tour to Grand Bassam in early December 2023. We were bit skeptical in the beginning because the company headquarter was located in Norway and not in Abidjan but Sonia, our contact person, was very responsive, accountable, sincere and very helpful. Although there were no previous reviews at TripAdvisor and Viator websites, we felt assured that it would be fine. In fact, we had a great time visiting Grand Bassam by walking and later taking a canoe ride in the lagoon regardless of some language challenges with our guide. The official language of Ivory Coast is French. The guide spoke English but it was bit hard to understand with his accent. The driver and the guide came to a port to pick us up. We were on HAL cruise ship. The Abidjan city traffic was horrendous and it took us about 1.5 hrs to get to Grand Bassam from Abidjan. They customized our tour because we had to get back to the port by a certain time. Overall, it went very well and we enjoyed our tour. We fully recommend this company for the tour of Grand Bassam from Abidjan.
