Niger, a landlocked country in West Africa, offers a unique travel experience for adventurous tourists. Key attractions include the W National Park, known for its wildlife, and the Agadez Grand Mosque. Due to limited infrastructure, accessibility can be challenging, and travelers should consider guided tours, especially when venturing outside Niamey. Solo travel is possible but requires careful planning and awareness of safety concerns. The best time to visit is during the dry season (November to February) to avoid extreme heat and rainfall. Expect to spend approximately $50-$150 per day, depending on accommodation and activities. A typical visit duration ranges from one to two weeks to explore key regions. Be prepared for cultural differences, and learning some French can be helpful.
