And I say this because your budget will earn you higher utility in Cotonou/Lome than Abidjan.
You'll save money in transport costs, and in addition, things are cheaper in these countries than in Ivory Coast, even tho they all use the same currency.

idera1:


thanks for the quick response. please if I may ask, what tourist centers can we visit in Cotonou?

shysteve:
NairA is now nothing to write home about...even people were complaining at the border that nairA has become so useless....it's 1k nairA to 1600 cefa.....almost becoming 1 to 1.

Ugosample:


These are trying times indeed for our currency.
Very trying times

I didn't go from Lagos o,I stay in Ghana so my journey was from Accra.am enjoying the place so far,the exchange rate is 1k nairA to 1600 cfa so 100k nairA will give you 160k cfa.i was advised by the transport company to change my money before leaving Accra dos it might lower at the border,tank God I followed their advise cos the border guys were saying 1k to 1550cfa.
