Travel Tips from people who've been to Lome
13133230FAN ICE!!!!! Seriously if you're heading to Ghana, Togo or Burkina Faso you have to get into fan ice. It's a wonderful cold treat on a hot day and you can choose between fanice (like vanilla ice-cream), fanyogo (frozen yogurt, comes in strawberry, vanilla or natural) or fanchoco (frozen chocolate milk). They are served in little plastic tubes that you bite one corner off and suck the contents out and they are unbelievably good. You'll often see boys peddling white carts around the street honking horns- they are selling fanice products- stop them, you won't regret it!

132325If you have a strong stomach and mind, I strongly recommend eating at roadside stalls or markets. It's a different experience to sit on a bench a metre away from the road with your plate balanced on your knees. The stall owners don't try to overcharge and the food is authentic. This is a real money saver too.

13133230Bush taxis in Lome are fantastic! Decrepit, unreliable, full to the roof but cheap, plentiful and a truly African experience! I would thoroughly recommend them, especially if you're not willing to brave the taxi-motos (motorbike/scooter taxis) which are a lot more fun but also a lot more dangerous.
