The Africa Insight with DAVID

Banfora

Banfora is situated in one of the most beautiful regions of Burkina Faso, the Comoe Province.

The town is not much of a draw for tourists in itself but the location is perfect; the nearby attractions include Tengrela Lake, which is a great place to spot hippos, especially in the dry season, and the Karfiguela Waterfalls which make for a great hiking or picnic spot.

The falls have their own parking area with security for self-drive holidaymakers.
