BY SEA
Banjul has a deep sea port which receives several cruise ships a year. Container ships and other freighters call into Banjul Port from all over the world.
BY ROAD
If you are already in the West African sub-region, you can travel to The Gambia by road. There is a good road link between Dakar and Banjul and the journey will take between five and six hours. There is also a road link with Ziguinchor, in southern Senegal, and Bissau. A four-wheel drive vehicle is recommended.
