My Calabar Experience: Tour of Calabar’s best kept secret

Tour of Calabar’s best kept secret

THIS TOUR was an aftermath of the Destination Nigeria Conference and the Nigeria Association of Tour Operators (NATOP) annual general meeting. It was meant to be a normal sightseeing drive through the city of Calabar 

aboard the Rovosta open-roofed bus.

It turned a great everyone one of us, both to the tourists and to the travel writers, a discovery of a whole new side of Calabar. Several of us have visited Calabar not once and obviously not twice.

And as a curious traveller myself, I’ve explored everything the ancient city has to offer from its food to its carnival, from dawn to its dusk; and from the city center to its suburbs - I mean that I’ve explored everything! And I didn’t the erotic sides!

This time the tour took me a step away from the usual and took us out to the core historical aspects that actually led to where the city is today.

Calabar is more than the Carnival!
