Travel Tips from people who've been to Bandiagara
13133230Take as little as you can when hiking through Dogon Country as it will significantly increase your enjoyment of the hike. That said it can get quite cool at night (especially in the wet season) so you may want to carry something warm. You also may want to bring a torch, something waterproof (especially in the wet season) and some kola nuts if you want to befriend the locals!

04918it's the capital city of the d\Dogon countries in Mali, it's a very interesting place. The architectural style is very similar to Gaudi's. The Dogon are great artists, they craft amazing cerimonial masks. I am not sure you can find the antique ones anymore, but the new ones are just as good and they make for a nice souvenir

04618Bandiagara is one of two main hubss for people wanting to visit dogon country. Lots of guides but the best ones come from Pere Vespirene's monastary. Mac's refuge in sevare is a great place to start since he grew up in Dogon country and can help you to avoid bad guide experiences.
