Discover Senegal

Westernmost of the African continent, Senegal offers visitors a rich array of cultural and natural spectacles.

From the vivacity of the capital city Dakar’s artistic heart to the jazz-loving St Louis, the modern nation fosters its customs and nurtures its talents in equal measure. Spread across grassy plains and arid open space of over 197,000 km², this former French occupied territory still boasts elegant colonial architecture, whilst retaining much of its tribal traditional village heartlands.

Beyond the influence of man, however, is a land with abundant birdlife and exquisite shorelines. Senegal is keen to celebrate and share its history and wildlife with those who come to discover this gem of West Africa.

Feedback from our Travellers

The itinerary was great and we also got see an unexpected tribal ceremony in the Casamance part of Senegal. Another very agreeable surprise was a trip to Kayar, a large fishing village on the Atlantic Ocean coastline. We saw hundreds of brightly coloured fishing boats and the fishermen and helpers unloading their catch in very rough seas. An incredible experience. The time spent in the Bijagos islands was also fantastic, combining fantastic accommodation with French cuisine and experiencing the Vaca Bruto ceremony. I was also fortunate in that the tour members were a fantastic bunch, all exceedingly well travelled with a great sense of fun.

Staff in the office were communicative over both email and the phone, over the three years since initial booking, postponement, and final rearranged booking. Ousmane Niamh was excellent in every way. He was knowledgeable, experienced, calm and unflappable. He was engaging and handled some very different personalities without being fazed.. I was very happy with the standards but do not know if they could have been higher. The accommodation did vary but it was very much part of the whole experience to stay in some of the more ‘unusual’ places. I was very happy with everything. Also some of the others in the group who had booked via different companies did not appear to have had the same high degree of support - for example in booking of flights, and suggested arrangement of late checkout on final day.

A journey through west Africa starting in rapidly developing Senegal and travelling into Guinea Bissau parts of which haven't changed in centuries. Hot and dusty , a fascinating mix of French and Portuguese colonial culture venturing far off the tourist track. The Bijagos archipelago provides an ancient and remote tribal culture and some rare wildlife viewing opportunities. Undiscovered destinations are well informed and well organised.
