Longer Excursions
There is so much to see and experience in The Gambia away from the beach resorts.
Take a river cruise, stay in a tented camp, feel the depth of history both ancient and recent.
Spend some time in the real Gambian countryside and take home experiences to remember. Follow one of the established routes or let us organise a tailor-made tour.
Longer excursions need careful planning, and the many years experience that West African Tours has, combined with trained staff and a fleet of vehicles for all occasions and terrains goes to ensure that quality control is at the forefront of their ground management services during your travels.
West African Tours pride themselves on their hands-on approach to managing excursions. This means that you get the right staff and the right equipment for the right excursion.
All excursions start and finish from the choice of hotel. Overnight stays are in local accommodation which, whilst more basic than the hotels, is nonetheless clean and comfortable.
All of our tours are accompanied by local, experienced guides with extensive knowledge of the country and its culture.
Use the menu options on the left to explore the short excursions that we offer.
West African Tours can combine many of these excursions to ensure your stay in The Gambia is an experience to remember. We can also organise tailored excursions for your particular interest, for example birdwatching, fishing, history or photography.
BOOKING AN EXCURSION
For travellers arriving with a tour operator we recommend that you book your excursions with your tour or hotel representative as this is the most straightforward arrangement.
For other travellers we are happy to organise your excursions in advance. Please contact us with your requirements.
