Help! I'm going to Benin in August. I want to go from Cotonou to Johannesburg, but there are no flights! How does one get around in Africa? I basically have about 6 days extra time, so I'd like to explore another area. Any ideas? Thank you so much!
Travel from Benin to Cape Town!

From Cotonou you'd need to either get to Lagos or Dakar. From there, South African Airways will fly you direct to Johannesburg. It looks like your best bet would be Virgin Nigeria > Lagos > Johannesburg
