Travel and Tour World (TTW),a premier digital and integrated media platform focusing on travel and tourism industry, has rated Sierra Leone as an emerging tourism destination endowed with beautiful beaches.
TTW has more than 5 million readers globally and it is dedicated to travel, tourism, airlines, cruises, technology, and hospitality. It serves as a powerful promotional partner, supporting over 1,200 major international events.
“For travelers in search of an off-the-beaten-path African adventure, Sierra Leone delivers raw beauty and untapped potential. Once overlooked due to its history of civil unrest, this West African nation is now gaining recognition for its stunning beaches, warm hospitality, and vibrant culture,” the magazine states.
TTW described Freetown, the capital, as a great starting point for exploration and recognized River Number 2 Beach as among the best beaches across the world.
“One of the country’s most breathtaking spots, River Number 2 Beach, rivals some of the world’s finest tropical shores,”
The magazine throws light on the ease of travelling to the country, time to visit and the availability of suitable and affordable hotel accommodation.
“Fly from Heathrow to Freetown Lungi International (FNA) via Istanbul (IST) and Ouagadougou (OUA) with Turkish Airlines from £930 return. November to April is the dry season, ideal for outdoor exploration. Hiring a local guide is recommended to navigate the country with ease. A one-week stay at the Radisson Blu Mammy Yoko Hotel in Freetown, including breakfast, starts at £1,164.”
