Although Yamoussoukro is the capital of Cote d’Ivoire, Abidjan is where the real fun happens. Nicknamed “The Manhattan of Africa” or “Little Paris,” Abidjan is history with finest Ivorian gastronomy, culture and local markets. Abidjan is also an incredible architecture hub with the L’ile Flottante and St. Paul’s Cathedral, trendy restaurants and bars but also bustling markets for locals and tourists. Abidjan is classy, cultural and fun at the same time. Visitors most likely will feel the vibes of downtown Paris when in Abidjan due to the heavy French cultural influence on the city. From the fashion to the restaurants in this city, Abidjan is a must for any visitor to the beautiful country.

Grand-Bassam
Grand-Bassam
Excursion
Proudly touting its UNESCO World Heritage tag, Grand-Bassam bursts forth from the Ivorian coast with the medley of elegant Parisian mansions and crafted colonial municipal buildings that is the Ancien Bassam district. Now crumbling and creaking with age, this area once reigned as the capital of French Ivory Coast.

Some of the buildings have been returned to their former glory, and visitors can still spy out the great Cathédrale Sacré Cœur and the enthralling Museum of Costume.

New Grand-Bassam is where most of the action takes place today, while the beaches to the west and east are where the resort hotels reside.

visit to Yamoussoukro

Imbued with wide boulevards and grand open spaces, shiny new (or at least relatively new) governmental buildings and high-rise hotels, the metropolis of 300,000 can seem like a ghost town. It was only chosen as the capital of Ivory Coast back in 1983 – a pet project of President Houphouët-Boigny’s, who was actually born here in 1908. There are some interesting sights, and not least of all that colossal Basilica of Our Lady of Peace; the largest Christian church on the planet and a mass of domes and columns that reflects the grandeur of Rome itself!

Welcome to Haitian Nomad, a premier travel company dedicated to curating and hosting unforgettable cultural experiences around the globe. At Haitian Nomad, we believe that travel is not just about visiting new places, but about immersing oneself in the richness of diverse cultures, forging connections, and creating lifelong memories. Our mission is to provide you with meticulously designed itineraries that go beyond the tourist trail, offering authentic and immersive experiences that showcase the true essence of each destination.

It was another EPIC, EDUCATIONAL UNOFICIAL HAITIAN NOMAD GIRLS TRIP EXPERIENCE! Our Ambassador Dr. Toi Washington-Simon is an excellent fun hostess. We were greeted with a beautiful bunch of roses and our farewell gift was a beautiful Maasai Mara Shuka.. She's also a very creative story creator and teller. IYKYK 😆 🤣 😂 In Zanzibar our tour guides Steven and Steven were excellent. Our visit with the Mamas of Zanzibar was a great cultural immersion experience. We got dressed up in their traditional wear and went to the market to buy our ingredients to cook our lunch. This experience was reminiscent of going to the market with my grandmother on Saturday mornings. The food was delicious. Swimming with the tortoises was an EPIC experience. Kenya was another EPIC adventure. Feeding the giraffes, elephants and going to the safari were excellent experiences. Visiting the Maasa Mara was a very educational cultural experience. Watching them jump and learning their History was fascinating. Getting a chance to Jump with them was a dream come through. Our tour guide uncle George is a natural comedian. 😆 🤣 😂. He and his staff are excellent tour guides. I stayed for 2 extra days after the group left and Ben, who works with the company took me on a very interesting and educational tour of Nairobi. I even had the opportunity to dance in the Bomas Of Kenya Auditorium. That's the venue where the winner of the presidential election in Kenya is declared I also visited the Homestead there. Very interesting and educational. As always our accommodations were Top Tier and it was a fun group of sisters. If you want a really GREAT, EPIC, EDUCATIONAL, CULTURAL, IMMERSION EXPERIENCE BOOK YOUR NEXT VACATION, ADVENTURE EXPERIENCE WITH HAITIAN NOMAD. ASAP! See you soon.

My favorite memory was when I celebrated my 50th birthday all year. During this year, I experienced my first trip to Haiti and Saut-d'eau. I got no picture to share. 🚫 This was a spiritual voyage for me, but I didn’t know it until I experienced it. This trip was also a highlight of my life. Thank you HNM! Congratulations on your success! Donna Marie

My trip to the Amalfi Coast with Haitian Nomad was beyond Excellent. Haitian Nomad exceeded my expectations in quality, organization, and leadership. Richard's leadership qualities and abilities are what you look for when hiring a company hosting trips all over the world with over 20+ participants at one time. The Amalfi Coast was my first trip this past June - and it won't be my last. I enjoyed everything from the beginning - all the way to the end. The accommodations and comradery was great. I have to say that I have met some amazing people that I will continue to build a relationship with. Do not hesitate..... choose a destination and give Haitian Nomad a try..... Happy Traveling.

Let me start off with saying I had a ball on the trip. Toi was the best ambassador she had everything planned out for us. It was a trip that was well needed and I was glad that I took the chance to go half way around the world and I had a blast. Toi gets 200 stars she was the best. I would go on another trip as long as Toi is the ambassador. Toi thank you so much for showing up and showing out the best. I had a blast.
