JOIN US AND DISCOVER THE REAL GAMBIA

Safari

This is the perfect day to discover Gambia's neighboring country, Senegal. In the morning we depart for Banjul to cross the river by ferry to the North Bank.

Birding

We go to the most beautiful spots for birdwatching, where you can hike, watch birds from a hide, or simply relax.

Fishing

If you'd like to fish for a few hours, you've come to the right place. Creek fishing or sea fishing can be organized to your requirements, for a full day or half a day.

Roots

In Banjul, a special journey begins with the ferry to the North Bank. In an open jeep you drive to Albreda and Juffureh, to visit the island of "the Flag of Freedom" and Kunta Kinteh.
