Check-Ins

Small restaurant along a route without a lot of other options. They have a dining area but will also make food to-go.

I got empanadas and they were quite good. Also small. You'll need six or eight per person (or more if you eat a lot).

Also has a selection of drinks, including beer.

The campsite is closed now (03.May.2024)

very good mechanics, honest and super helpful. Lots of campervan have come here.

Super nice place! Clean bathroom, hot shower (almost better than my own place), wifi that works pretty well, little dog park! We paid about 55$ with tx for full hookup for 1 night.

Not the cleaness spot in the world. No view… just few spot to park aside of the gravel road.

The ditch on the side of the road look a bit like a open dump. You can find empty weapon cartridge on the ground and maybe you will ear some local practice with those firearm, at the very end of the road.

But dont worry, local dont want to have any buisness with you and nobody will tell you to leave the place.

It is a quiet place but I will not send someone with a 200 000$ camper go camping in this place without him being aware of those fact mention above.

small Hostel, has two rooms with 3-4 beds, very basic facilitiies. Nice people, provides dinner and breakfast. paid 200 MAD per night. place for motorbike.

Has also place for 2 campers

Room with double bed and one single bed, cozy and comfortable, with Wi-Fi and shared toilet

It's a beautiful place indeed but when we were there (Friday) there were also a lot of locals having pick-nick, therefore it's very polluted (trash everywhere) and noisy. Try to go there during the week if you can.
If coming from south you must go through Samarra and the guards at the check point kept our passports so we had to go back instead of going directly to Tikrit from here.

Here they kept our passports to be sure we came back after visiting Abu Dulaf minaret. We told them we wanted to continue to Tikrit (we were coming from Baghdad) but they wouldn't let us go directly from the minaret on the other road. Very friendly and nice people but inflexible.

Very very delicious! We had some meat and fries and had no issues afterwards. We can recommend!

Best petrol station we've seen since arriving in tajikistan. Had also 95er benzine.

Recht gut ausgestattetes Werkstattviertel

The location is for their Kawasaki Warehouse. Their main office is in Okinawa. I used them for shipping my LC to Vancouver in a 20’ container. They are very professional and extensively deal with shipping American POV’s belongings and cars back and forth from Japan to the US. Reach out to them on [email protected] or their phone 098-989-6817. They are American owned so no language barrier. Very responsive. Can recommend.

Fan room is 7000CFA now. No wifi. I didn’t stayed.

Amazing campsite; feels like wildcamping in the middle of the bush, but with facilities!
Very nice warm bucketshower, flush toilet, little shelter. As soon as it was dark, hundreds of buffalo and elephants came to the waterhole (hard to see but lots to hear). The caretaker keeps the place spotless. Highly recommended, very good alternative for the camsites in the park.
We arrived via the park, left the next morning in the direction of Gwai towards Matopos (no park fees this way).
USD 20pp, USD10pp for the kids + USD 5 pp conservation fees. Firewood was expensive; USD 5 for a very small bundle.

Work still ongoing, expected to open July-2024. Seemed like it will be pretty luxurious, looked very tasteful! Very friendly owner, will have a small museum as well. Lovely building and interesting sinkhole.

Now 60TL per person, but restoration has progressed and now has some old carpets shown in the building and a cafe (not open when we visited).

Free parking
Free and clean relative new hot shower
Free water
Good spot to stay for a night.

Small gravel lot at the end of a road. it's okay for one night and to do the Suspension bridge.

Best stone baked pizza and gelato in Freetown.

Open during the day selling many flavours of ice cream S 35 - M 60 - L 80, coffee and some pastries with outdoor seating.

At night they are selling the pizzas from 220 - around 300, along with some other Italian influenced meals but I didn't try so can't comment on them. Also good Caprihiña 90 Leones, this was the cheapest cocktail, beer 55.

They accept card & also have a small beach bar over the road.

Busy road junction but not particularly a police hotspot, they are more at Lumley roundabout

Very nice spot near the river, 2 km from the cheesemakery of Guefait you find the path. Quit, beautiful scenery.

This simple govt owned rest house is midway between Jenda and Muzuzu. It is officially closed at the moment for maintenance but the caretaker opened one room with a bed for me for 5,000 MK. Ideal for cyclists who are tired from a big uphill from Muzuzu.
Even though the place is closed, the caretaker will also allow to camp on the grass. Plenty of space. No running water in the toilet. But there is electricity for charging devices. No light bulbs working though.
Caretaker, whose name is Gift, made bonfire outside and also invited to use the wood stove to cook food. He speaks good English and is very helpful.

Nice place to beat the heat in Vegas and take dogs out for a run. Some shady trees to park under. One pit toilet. Picnic tables. Circular pull through road and plenty of parking for RV's and trailers.

Behind UNLV Sam Boyd Stadium.

Au bord d'un joli lac, très calme, place pour plusieurs véhicules. Parfait !

*Concerning the current visa situation in Togo*

As mentioned previously, they do no longer issue Visas on Arrival at the borders of Togo. At the border they told us that this was apparently to combat corruption.
However, it gets better. They also refused to issue visas at the embassy in Accra. We were told that the only possibility to obtain a visa for Togo is to apply online. Whether they will issue visas at the embassy again after some time was unclear.
So my recommendation to anyone that is under a bit of time pressure, try the e-visa.

A place facing the beach, a small hill of firm sand, a quiet and safe place to spend the night, the Juninho kiosk no longer exists. But there are inns and grocery stores nearby.

Lugar de frente para praia , um morrinho de areia firme, local tranquilo e seguro para pernoitar , não existe mais o quiosque do Juninho. Mas tem pousadas e mercearia próximo

Ótimo local para passar o dia e tbm pernoitar !

Wonderful spot on a green hill. Near a unknown regional parc just under Metz. Big places to parc your vehicle, 4x4, camper or bike. Some hikers and mountainbikers. Very quiet atmosphere.

Drove past but didn’t stay. Spot is open, nobody was parked there today.
