• Head to Libassa Ecolodge, located 30 minutes outside Monrovia, in a stunning location between a lagoon and the Atlantic Ocean. It’s a family-owned business, and the founders built the lodge, which is made up of hand-built double cottages, over three years, working with the local community who they trained with skills in carpentry and hospitality. 

• Either enjoy the natural surroundings around the palm-fringed beaches or be on the lookout for some of the exotic birds known to frequent the area. 

Overnight at the Libassa Ecolodge in Kpan’s Town.

• Today, visit the world’s largest rubber plantation, Firestone, a part of Liberia, since 1926. This plantation has been well maintained over the years and offers vast, beautiful views of elegant white rubber trees. 

• Our guides will teach how the trees are tapped, and the rubber is made. Then venture out to Monkey Island, located in Marshal, which is a sanctuary for chimpanzees who were once used as test animals at the local research institute. Pressure from advocacy groups to stop experiments on chimps, coupled with a lack of funding, has resulted in the closings of such institutions and, thus, in need to find a home for all these primates who could not survive on their own in the wild. The chimps are fed daily by locals who use canoe’s to visit the chimps from a safe distance. 

• Join on the canoe ride to see these beautiful animals. In the afternoon, return to explore the surrounding areas of the lodge further and have several activity options available. 

Overnight at Libassa EcoLodge in Kpan’s Town.
