This tour is a really nice opportunity if you are only visiting Dakar to go and see some of the Saloum delta, a UNESCO world heritage site. You'll have the opportunity to visit a couple of towns within the delta (including Fadiouth, the famous island of shells), stop at an ancient baobab tree, and take a boat ride around the delta. It's an ambitious itinerary given how far it is from Dakar (about 3 hours one-way), so perhaps worth taking into account if you are looking to spend hours at each location - but is certainly suitable for those looking to see more of the country on a limited schedule. Shout out to my local guide and driver who drove all the way out to Dakar to pick me up and then again to drop me off at the end of the day
Abdou Diouf was a very energetic and hospitable tour guide. The driver was also very professional. This tour is a great way to take a break from the hustle of the city and enjoy the nature side of Sengal. Totally Recommend this tour.
It is a long drive to the destination but it’s a great way to see the countryside. The towns you pass through are interesting. The towns you visit are amazing. The boats tours (2) were fun. I saw lots of birds and got great photos. Food was absolutely delicious. Great tour. Don’t miss it.
