Hi everyone !
I discovered the Local Guide program, it really wasn’t very long ago, for a year and a half or so. I am of Beninese nationality and I live in the city of Natitingou, it is a small tourist town located in the North of the country.
The first observation I made on the program was the absence of several administrative services, tourist places and others (places like hospitals, hotels, restaurants …) in the city. The second observation concerned the accuracy of the information on certain places and locations, which was most often given by foreigners or tourists who did not always master the territory.
As a new guide and native, I have given myself the task of making corrections on the poorly informed locations. The most interesting thing, which I have done and which I continue to do as a local guide, is to always try to fill in if possible a telephone number, a website and photos of the place which I add to google maps.
Among other things, if you take a tour of Benin, I suggest you take a tour of Natitingou, you will enjoy yourself there between its environment, the landscapes, the tourist sites, etc.
