Sierra Leone

This welcoming country offers much natural beauty and culture, yet remains unsullied by mass tourism. In many places, local people are happily surprised each time they get visitors, and strive to make your stay the best possible. The country continues to be one of West Africa's best beach destinations and trekking zones, the latter thanks to varied topography and the presence of Mount Bintumani, the region's highest peak.
