Venture outside the Capital Lome on a full day guided driving, walking and sailing tour. This tour will give you a good sense of Togolese rural life and introduce you to the mysterious workings of the ancient African Voodoo. Your tour starts with a drive to Akodessewa Fetish Market, the largest fetish market in West Africa, to learn about the ancient Voodoo religion and its rituals. Then you'll continue your drive to Lake Togo along the coastal road. You will sail across the lake on a pirogue (traditional dugout canoe) to Togoville, the center for Voodoo practice in Togo and set out on a guided tour by a resident guide. Slave traders also once used Togoville as their point of departure for the Americas. After Togoville, you will visit the village of Agbodrafo on the shores of the Atlantic Coast (formerly called the Slave Coast) where an illegal slave trade once operated from the Wood Home or the La Maison des Esclaves.

Very nice day trip!!! Our guides walked with us looking for butterflies, visiting local village, showing and naming plants, explaining how to use them. You can experience some local atmosphere and after the walk eat a nice meal. Definitelly worth going!

We went to visit Mont Agou and Kpalime (Chateau Vial and one waterfall). I really enjoyed the trip which was very well organized. The guide was very optimistic and keen on explaining us cultural and historical things. The meal was just awesome. Everything was beyond expectations and I will definitely book another trip with Mowoki Tours next time I'll visit Togo.
