Itinéraire
L'île de GOREE était le plus important dépôt d'esclaves en Afrique de l'Ouest entre le 15ème et le 18ème siècle. Des esclaves ont été amenés contre leur gré dans des conditions horribles et souffrent d'abus indicibles. Une visite à la porte de non-retour vous donnera une idée de millions d'esclaves africains triés et conduits dans les navires esclaves en criant grâce.
Un bel exemple d'architecture coloniale. L'un des plus importants monuments architecturaux
Un magnifique exemple d'architecture islamique.
Construit pour l'ancien gouverneur français, il sert maintenant de domicile officiel au président en exercice.
Monument remarquable du XXIe siècle africain, il offre une vue panoramique sur la ville de Dakar.
Une halte shopping pour s'imprégner de l'atmosphère de la ville
Visitez l'impressionnante cathédrale construite dans un pays à 95% musulman. L'un des plus beaux exemples d'architecture religieuse construite au XIXe siècle.
Lorsque vous visitez la maison des esclaves sur l'île de Gorée, il faut très peu d'effort d'imagination pour réaliser à quel point les conditions de vie des esclaves étaient infernales.

Our tour guide Mr Omar was amazing. He was an excellent teacher and taught us a lot about Senegalese history. The day started promptly and everyone was professional. The included lunch was great as well. Lovely experience if you’re visiting Dakar.
Wow, I had a GREAT DAY TOUR to Goree Island and around the sites of Dakar it was Very Very Special!! On the way and at Goree Island I felt like I was a local as Oumar knew everyone along the way and was so well connected to all of them. It felt like I had a close friend on the inside!!! Oumar’s knowledge was deep, he knew so much about the city and the Islands history it was like having a professor of history riding with me the whole time. Oumar is very friendly and kind to everyone he meets especially his guests. If you take this tour you will not be disappointed!!! Thank you Oumar🙏🏻🙏🏻
Very experienced and knowledgeable guide Oumar. Nothing was too much trouble. Seamless journey from ship into Dakar to see the city sights Long enough to see everything then onto the Isle of Goree. Beautiful afternoon with a very hospitable lunch break. Slave house visit well explained and walk around the lovely streets of the island. Ferry both ways was managed by Oumar who seems to know everyone 😄. Back at the ship in good time for our sailing. Would recommend 100% Thanks for making our day so enjoyable.
Don't be afraid to visit Dakar, it is a wonderful experience! This full day tour provided a city tour and all the fabulous architecture, both new and old; insight into the religious aspects of Dakar, and the historic UNESCO site- Goreé Island. We saw and did it all with Samba safely navigating through what appeared to be the chaotic traffic of a bustling city. Our guide, Babacar, showed his pride in his country and did a fabulous job presenting important facts and personal insights into not only Dakar, but several other aspects of Senegalise life. We shared the ferry ride to Goreé Island with about 100 middle school children on a school field day and their exuberance of what was probably a first time boat ride for many added to the excitement of the short trip. Once we arrived on the Island, we saw 100s more school children learning about the slave history of Senegal. Before we began our tour of the Island we sat down for an authentic Sengales dish with rice, fish, carrots, casaba and tamarind...it was delicious! (Tip: Be sure to ask for some chili peppers if you like it hot.) Since it was a private tour, Samba brought us by a grocery store for a quick stop to pick up some snacks before getting us back to the cruise ship and hour before all-aboard time.
An amazing experience, my guide “Famara” was amazing. Had a great time with him. From history of Senegal to giving me tips on what to explore during my trip, he was gentle, kind, informative and was a pleasure spending the day with him. He also had the best guide waiting for us at “Goree Island”. I had such a great time with his team. Will absolutely recommend him over and over.
While it was generally a good tour, the itinerary was not followed and lunch was not provided, even though it was listed as “included”. Likewise, there was no stop at the large market in central Dakar (supposedly a 30 minute stop). I contacted the manager and he said he would check into the matter, but two days have passed without any further response. The visit to Goree Island was interesting, as was the overall view of Dakar.
Oumar did a fantastic job as our tour guide! He was waiting at the exit of our cruise ship as promised and started with a great tour of Dakar that visited all the key highlights of this great African city. He then took us on a tour of Goree Island. While this is a difficult place to visit due to its history, Oumar provided tremendous background and cultural history that really made it memorable for us. He has a great passion for the topic with a focus on helping visitors understand it. I loved his insights on how Senegal benefits from focusing on religious solidarity, well beyond religious tolerance. He was highly fluent in English, and we ended the day with a lovely lunch. I highly recommend both him and his tour company!!
An increasing formative and moving tour. Excellent tour company and phenomenal guide and driver. Everything was perfect from start to finish!
Absolutely incredible experience! What an awesome tour company and excellent guide full of interesting information.
After cruise picked up on time at port terminal.With friendly and knowledgeable guide Bobacar Ndiaye visited island Gorée. Afterwards Dakar city with musée Black Africa and most sights visited. Dropped off at airport afterwards.
