Tour Information about Liberia


Liberia, Africa's oldest republic, is one of the continents most history-rich yet cash-poor nations. It is struggling to get back on its feet after almost 14 years of civil war, which led to the deaths of 250,000 people. In 2006, Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf was elected president, becoming Africa's first female ruler. She faces the daunting task of rebuilding the country, which has a presence of 15,000 UN troops.

Travellers are currently advised against all but essential travel to Liberia outside of the capital, Monrovia. But if this nation recovers enough to open up to tourists, intrepid travellers will have the opportunity to explore the sprawling capital, relax on the beach or venture into the pristine wilderness of Sapo National Park.

Destinations:-

  • Sapo National Park - Liberia's sole national park.
  • Blue Lake - 72 kilometres west of Monrovia, Liberia's capital, comes a natural wonder.
  • Providence Island-is a tiny island between downtown Monrovia and the Freeport. It lies at the mouth of the Mesurado River where early settlers to Liberia first settled between 1820 and 1822.
  • Lake Piso-is located in Grand Cape Mount County and is a saltwater lake with an open connection to the Atlantic Ocean.
  • Atlantic Coastal Beaches-Bernard's Beach, CeCe Beach, ELWA Beach, Kendejah Beach, Kenema Beach, Thinkers Village Beach.
