    A little note here though I am in Canada know the country well. People who rides bikes with a yellow t-shirt are not doing so because they have bad taste 🤣🤣. They are licence cab drivers. The "cab" is called zemidjan or simply zem. Just hop in you negociate (a little cause very cheap) the price and pay before. The color of the T-Shirt varies by city but it in Cotonou it is yellow. You can call a taxi cab (car) but do mention you are a foreigner cause they will often not come. Zemidjans are preferable to taxi cabs unless you have a lot of stuff to bring with you.

      Hi @happinessonyeka1867, I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I went With ABC transport from Jibowu terminal in Lagos and the fare was N18,000 but I bet the fare must have gone up. Check www.abctransport.com for current fare, it’s a good idea to compare fare among their competitors too. The things you need are basically your travel document which is your International Passport, I paid another N3k because that was my first time visiting and I was told it’s for stamping. As per Hotel, there are lots of good hotels and apartments but the main criteria is safety, although things are generally peaceful. You can follow me on IG @oyin_makanjuola where I can as well speak with you directly.

    • @PlacesWithOyin
      @PlacesWithOyin Рік тому

      Hi Beautiful @ifeomaagha-ho9st, I’m glad you are here. That cooling off is necessary sometimes. As regards travel documents, you definitely need an International Passport though Cotonou is about 1hr or less from you, and we do not need a Visa, but it’s another country. Just try to get the international passport. Remember if anything happens during your stay, Nigerian government will know where you are and they can evacuate their citizens, but without the passport you are not recognized in another country. If you are stopped by immigration within the country or police are looking for some people, if they mistook you for someone else, there’s no way out. I can’t wait for you to get your International Passport and jet out on vacations.

I could recall during my visit i changed 5k i went to Dotakapa Market bought lots things and still came to Seme border with lots of CFA but today our currency values has gone down, imagine you spent about 500k with a week which in those days you will buy car join body come back to naija with such amount 😂😂
