Mindful meoweler tips

Get ready for some spicy food

Boke cuisine includes lots of hot peppers and spicy sauces. Don't be afraid to try it, but make sure to have a bowl of milk or yogurt nearby to cool down those cat tongues!

Respect local customs

Guinea has a rich culture and traditions that may differ from your own. Take time to learn about it and be respectful. For example, it's considered impolite to eat with your paws, so use utensils if provided.

Visit the Kinkon Falls

Located just outside of Boke, the Kinkon Falls are a beautiful natural wonder. You can swim in the cool waters of the falls and enjoy the lush jungle scenery.
