Getting There

Crossing the border to Benin

The border between Togo and Benin can easily be crossed from Kara. The road to the border is good and can be taken by taxi. You may book a taxi or taxi-brousse all the way to Djougou, which will probably mean you need to change cars somewhere before the border. It is also possible to take a taxi or taxi-brousse straight to the border, walk across the border to the taxi stand in Benin (some 5-10 minutes walk) and then take a taxi-brousse to Djougou there.

The border crossing itself is very easy, but you need to have arranged a visa to Benin before, as it is more..
