Burkina Faso Tours: Land of Honest People
Burkina Faso — whose name translates as “Land of Honest People” — is one of West Africa’s most culturally rich and least-visited destinations. With over 60 distinct ethnic groups, a world-renowned film festival (FESPACO), extraordinary natural landscapes, and some of the most authentic traditional culture in the region, Burkina Faso rewards adventurous travellers from the UK, USA, Canada, and Europe with experiences found nowhere else on the continent.
