Popular General Tips | Other General Tips Tips | All Tips (7) Try to meet local people. Visit the 'normal' villages, learn about the local life. This is very interesting! In my opinion, Togo is a real Africa - no many tourists, no special nature or monuments, but just Africa - with the sun, banana trees, smiling people, plenty of children... Leave a Comment

Banks usually close from 12:00 to 3:00 PM and on sat. and Sun. the easiest way to change money is at Le grand March, a 1 min walk from Palm beach hotel. u will find them anytime, just check the bank rates before you go. Leave a Comment

Lomé is hardly on the average gourmet's list of places to visit, but it probably should be. Although cooking in West Africa is often tasty, it can be relatively repetitive, especially inland, where the range of fresh ingredients is often quite restrained (given those constraints, it's amazing just what some little restaurants are able to cook up, though!).
However, here on the sea coast, in a very lush area, there seems to be a very wide variety of foods available, and local restaurants make heavy use of the excellent fish that's there for the catching. Whether you go to one of the more upscale restaurants, or simple invest in a brochette (kebab) of barbecued fish with a tangy sauce, don't miss out on the seafood. The French influence is especially strong in Togo, and it shows in the most positive way on the menus. Leave a Comment

Togo is a very religious country and a large number of the populace attend church on a Sunday. Services can be up to 2 1/2 hours long. Try the Calvary Temple of the Assemblies of God. Services at 7am, 9.30am and 14.00pm each with at least a thousand people in the congregation. I went to the 7am service and was made very welcome. Another good place to try is the German built Roman Catholic cathedral on Rue Du Commerce.

it didn't happen to but but just take care. when they give u the money it is in stacks of ten bills with the tenth wrapping the other nine, check your money well and make sure it's the right amount. do not give him your money unless u r sure u've got yours. and ask him to check your money in front of u. don't change large amounts at a time. Better safe than sorry Leave a Comment

one fact to get, Togo is a poor country, and for Togolese White people means rich people, so don't get shocked by their constant urge for money. But u will get to know that they are nice friendly people, at least not violent. if you don't wanna pay for something u just say it. that's it no strings attached. Leave a Comment
