Rules in force · 7Bags stay at the hotel or in the car
- Benin ↗Check visa and entry rules for your passport on official Beninese government sources; an e-visa exists for many nationalities.
- Benin ↗Governments advise against travel to parts of northern Benin near the Burkina Faso and Niger borders, including areas around the national parks; check your own government's advice.
- Benin ↗Vodun is a living religion: ask before photographing shrines and ceremonies, and follow your guide's instructions.
- Cotonou and Porto-Novo ↗Travel in daylight, use a car with a driver, and avoid motorbike taxis unless you have a helmet.
- Cotonou ↗Cards work in a few hotels and supermarkets only: carry XOF in small notes and change money at banks or hotel desks.
- Cotonou ↗Bags stay at the hotel or in the car: large bags in Dantokpa and on the street draw thieves and slow you down.
- Cotonou ↗Motorbike taxis (zémidjans) are common and crashes are frequent: use a car, or ride only with a helmet.
