Learn more about Ivory Coast Tourism
Ivory Coast, also known as Côte d'Ivoire, is a West African country popular for its beach resorts, its rainforests, and a French colonial legacy. This country has Abidjan, the largest urban center in the country, which is located on the Atlantic coast. Its modern landmarks include The Pyramid, which looks like a ziggurat pyramid, and St. Paul's Cathedral, a structure tied to a giant cross. To the north of the business, you can find the is Banco national park, a famous jungle reserve with trails for hiking.
This African country also has a great variety of savannas and jungles, which makes it suitable for having several national parks that you can visit with professional guides. These parks are the main tourist attraction in the country, along with the beach resorts and other interesting historical points that you can find both in its capital and other cities.
It should be noted that the Ivory Coast has great cultural diversity, especially because it is bordered by other African countries like Ghana, Burkina Faso, Mali, and Liberia. That’s why you can also appreciate a multitude of ethnic groups, festivals and social events focused on music and art. There are more than sixty indigenous ethnic groups in the Ivory Coast, so you can be sure that the cultural diversity here is a great plus.
The capital of the Ivory Coast is Yamoussoukro, and it is located next to the Kossou Lake, an artificial reservoir built on the Bandama River. Since this place is located on a plain, you’ll be able to notice a tree savanna around it, which is crossed by watercourses, among which are the Marahoué and the N'Zi, two tributaries of the Bandama.
Yamoussoukro only has an equatorial climate that varies between dry and rainy days. While this may be somewhat uncomfortable if you can't stand the heat, it's a bearable climate if you have the right clothes. Besides, thanks to this climate you can enjoy the savannahs and vegetation that are around the city.
In Yamoussoukro, you can easily locate the Basilica of Our Lady of Peace in Yamoussoukro, which is perhaps the most important tourist spot in the city. This Catholic temple was built in the image of St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City, and it is also considered one of the largest Catholic churches in the world. It should be noted that despite its size and monumentality, the Basilica is not a cathedral, since the nearby Cathedral of Saint Augustine is the main place of worship in the city and the seat of the bishop of the diocese of Yamoussoukro.
Even so, this place is still a mandatory stop when you travel to the Ivory Coast, especially for its architectural beauty. It is not difficult to enter the basilica, but it is always important to ask the guides or nearby officials about any details so that you can avoid any misunderstandings during your visit.
Near the capital city, you can also tour the famous Abokouamekro Game Reserve. This is a protected area established in 1993. Since then, this fauna reserve covers at least 135 km2 (52 sq mi). It is home to many animals that are currently endangered in the Ivory Coast, which is why the current visits are always very well-planned so that the travelers don’t create any damage to the environment or the animals in the place.
It’s important to note that the Ivory Coast’s parks and reserves are very popular, and that’s why this country focuses its tourism in these places. For that reason, it is not difficult to find more than one national park, and keep in mind that each of these parks has a special charm.
The first park you should visit is the Tai National Park, located in the southwest of Ivory Coast, near the border with Guinea and Liberia. This park was created in 1972 and since then it has received thousands and thousands of visits annually, mainly because it is one of the last intact primary forests in Africa, at least within the western Guinean lowland jungle. In this park, you can find several species in danger of extinction in West Africa: the pygmy hippopotamus, Jentink's cephalophus, the gray mangabey, the chimpanzee, the bonobo, etc. It is also home to numerous plant species and it is an important center for scientific and pharmaceutical research.
Other parks that you cannot miss when while staying in Ivory Coast are Comoé National Park, Banco National Park, Azagny National Park, and Ehotilé Islands National Park. The latter has an archipelago of six islands located in the estuarine area, so it is a very relaxing stop.
It is difficult to get bored in Ivory Coast due to the wide variety of natural places it has. It is a fascinating country for adventurers and nature lovers to the fullest, so you cannot miss it if you want to know an important part of Africa.
To enter this country, you must take into account some requirements, especially when we talk about travel documents. Some countries require an e-Visa or a paper visa, but they are few compared to those that have an easier entry thanks to the country's visa policy. For this reason, it will almost always be necessary to have nothing else but the Ivory Coast Air Travel Declaration, since this permit allows the authorities to have a better record of those who enter from abroad.
Processing the Ivory Coast Air Travel Declaration is not complicated, as you obtain this document electronically by filling out an application form. The Ivory Coast Air Travel Declaration is mandatory for all foreign travelers, although keep in mind that this is not a replacement for the visa. That means that if you require a visa to enter the Ivory Coast, you will have to process it separately.
The Ivory Coast Air Travel Declaration also has a much more affordable price than other documents, so it won’t be the main inconvenience for your travel plans. Also, if you apply for the Ivory Coast Air Travel Declaration with iVisa.com, you can have it ready in no time.
