Frequently Asked Questions


Is it safe to travel to Benin??

Benin is a great country to visit on any West African itinerary. ... The national parks of Benin are also well worth a visit for their wildlife. It is also, fortunately, one of the most stable and safe countries of the region for traveling.


What should I wear in Benin??

In general, men should wear trousers (not shorts), and a clean shirt. T-shirts are hot and don't dry well. Translation: you will be wet with your own sweat all day if you wear a t-shirt. I recommend a loose woven button-down shirt with short sleeves.


What language do they speak in Benin??
A total of 55 languages are spoken in Benin, with 50 being indigenous. Of those, French is the official language, and all the indigenous languages are considered national languages. Of the Beninese languages, Fon (a Gbe language) and Yoruba are the most important in the south of the country.
