Stepping into that church will always stay on my mind forever! Also listening to the guide describing the story of the religious statues in the lake moved me. I will definitely come back for a longer visit.

Be weary booking this tour- I would not recommend it. I booked this tour thinking I would go to the Afro museum and Benin museum (the museums were the only reason I booked this experience). The Afro museum has been closed for months now and the tour agency knew this- they waited until I got into the car on the day of the tour (and could no longer cancel) to tell me this and ‘substituted’ it with a trip to a market I did not want to go to and did need to go to. The Benin museum was also closed and they should have checked this before the tour commenced. Bearing in mind I paid £120 for this tour and got nothing out of it. I was conversing with the agency days before this was supposed to take place and they had ample opportunities to let me know the museum was closed so I could cancel and get a refund. At the same time as booking this tour I booked another to see the upper and lower city so everything I saw during the Afro tour was what I saw the next day during my city tour. I reached out to the agency and requested a 50% refund (as I had a guide and driver and knew they had to be paid) and they in no uncertain terms told me I would not be getting one. I have now passed this onto Viator who I hope will refund me as the tour was a complete rip off and was mis-sold. In addition I did not get to go to Elevator Lacerda or Mercado Modelo.

Truly incredible tour. The tour guide knew so much and was able to answer all my questions. I liked that I got to see a lot of sights and learn a lot of interesting history in a short amount of time.
