I am planning to go for a 3-day vacation in La Del Papa in Benin Republic. For those who know about this place should please advise. I am going there with my family of 5. So I don't want stories.

1. Can I drive to Cotonou and what is required? Any special papers required?
2. Must we all have a NIGERIA passport before we can be allowed in?
3. How is this resort? Any negative view?


Please help your brother.

Na wao. No comment

Answers:

1. Yes you can drive (have all car papers and co. + Documents at border at seme). You can as well chatter a car at the border to that Resort. To avoid unneccessary stress.

2. If you all have Passport, No Problem. But at least have I.D Card and make sure your children have birth certificates.

3. I swear that Resort is A Paradise of Beauty. Its not in the city of Cotonou. The Papa del Casa Resort is in the city of Ouidah (just 1:30 minutes drive from cotonou and about 2hr drive from Nigerian Border).

PS: Try Google this 'Cassie Daves Cotonou Trip' on Google. Then You'll be wowed like is this in Africa!

@OP I will advise you not to drive through some border because the customs and immigration officers will milk your pock on that route,most especially when you are still a first timer..

Try this route ...Owode...Idiroko route and yeah you need an international passport for you to carry out normal formalities and to avoid stress...You will have to apply for a temporary permit to drive your car in Benin Republic ...Its called laissé passé...Then you are good to go!!

I really appreciate this brother. God bless you. We all have passports except for my house help. I do hope they will allow her in.

Thank you very much bro. With this ur advice, I will dump the idea of driving. I will hire a vehicle to the border and then to the resort. Thanks a bunch.
