Meet the locals! Discover the real Gambia and its friendly people in a truck
Don't miss the south of The Gambia. With a jeep or a 4x4 car with air conditioning, this interesting tour goes to the south of the country to get to know southern Gambia and its inhabitants. First stop is Kachikally the sacred crocodile pool. This location is used to perform fertility rituals.
We then visit the Serekunda market. A gigantic market, where you can buy anything, from clothing to mobile phones, spices and other food. We continue our way to Abuko livestock market, where there is a lot of trading, especially goats and sheep. The Fulani are real cattle traders. After the market we go to Paradise beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in Gambia. Take a refreshing dip in the ocean, order a fresh lobster or fresh fish, but a local dish with chicken, meat or fish is of course also possible. Lunch is not included.
The final stop and a highlight of the tour is the fishing village of Tanji. At the end of the day the boats come in and it is a true spectacle. You will see that daily life is completely devoted to fishing. Tanji is the largest fishing port in Gambia and important for exports to Senegal, among others.
A full, versatile day that you should not miss.
