Voice of Travelers to Libreville

Work trip to Libreville

I work for Barclays bank and my team and I had been sent to Libreville to do a field study of the country. We wanted to expand into Libreville and therefore the preliminary studies had to be done by the employees. The company sorted our air ticket, visas and the accommodation prior before our trip to Libreville. On arrival we were driven to our hotel that was right in the middle of Libreville. We returned with an air ticket from Rwandair. This was a mistake the service was not as good as what we had from British airways, where we wished we had acquired our ticket from.
