Excellent. Just excellent. The tour guide, Assan Saine, was easily one of the best guides I’ve ever had and made sure that each of us had the special experience we were hoping for. I would definitely return to The Gambia. Thanks to Responsible Travel for introducing this tour to me and indeed, all my tours!read more

the time spent at the fishing village of Kayar.read more

We had an excellent leader and driver. The birds we saw were great but apart from that, i don't think these two countries have much else to offer. read more
