  • If you split time between cities and countryside, check whether your plan covers the full area you will visit—some rural or island hops have thinner coverage.
  • Before you land, download offline maps for key cities and main travel routes across Ivory Coast so navigation works even with spotty signal in basements or remote stretches.
