Doing The Most in Senegal / The Gambia
Home over a week now; and still reliving with friends/family good times in Senegal/The Gambia, now want to update review with more sharing! The awesomeness of it all. Starting with my first three nights’ accommodations outlooking the Atlantic Ocean!; All the awe-inspiring attractions, activities, and more, including the African Renaissance Monument, The Museum of Black Civilization, Ile de Goree, Lake Retba (“pink glake”); Three course Brunch w/ music, dancing and fresh shrimp+ all barbequed & served right on the river; Visiting the twin village of Joal-fadiouth; exploring the Saloum Delta and villages. The Banju-Barry Ferry crossing into The Gambia’s capital city, Banjul; visiting Albreda Juffureh, the historic enslaved peoples trade post on the north bank of the Gambia River; A night out on the town in Senegambia enjoying jazz & R&B; The National Museum, Boat travel to Kuntah Kintae Island - Gambia River’s “Never Again - Door of No Return;” Spontaneous visit with a very generous and kind local Casamance family in Eloubaline, Ediounguou and overnight at the comfortable / friendly family run retreat. Visiting Oussouye, Mlomp and la pointe St. Georges’s Abuko Nature Reserve, Kachikally Museum of Crocodile Santuary; and The River Gambia National Park. Visit to Museum Kadioute de boucottel. DSS Flight Returning to Dakar; for a day and night winding down before wrapping up the tour - visiting Bandia Reserve’s Rhinoceros, Giraffes, Zebras, Crocodiles and more. My farewell lunch was a thoughtful serving of Sengalese Okra Stew, “Soup Kandia.” I will always remember and be grateful for the expertise and hospitality of everyone involved throughout my stay. Kudos to Amadou Barry, for an amazing job of arranging and networking all Sights and Visits, Transportation, Hotel accommodations and Local Guides. Shout out to Malang! I’m also very grateful for Ibou’s skilled driving and even temperament, ensuring getting us to and from every destination, always safely, on time and always “InchaAllah.” My sincere gratitude and praise to both gentlemen for making sure my Senegal/The Gambia experience ticked all my boxes: culturally immersive, adventurous, comfortable and safe. THANK YOU, Agsil Senegal Travel Tours!!!

Agsil Senegal Tours i actually got to live Senegal and Gambia, experiencing the history, culture, language & food
All around amazing! Starting day 1 with Amadou's genuine welcoming; and throughout my 12 days. Every aspect of the tour was well planned and coordinated. This was truly an immersive experience, with loads of adventure and just the right balance of relaxation too.
Response from the operator: Thanks for taking the time to let me know you been satisfied.

A Dream Come True
I have read about Senegal and Gambia, West Africa, and yearned to visit, see, taste, hear, and feel those things I read. Agsil Senegal Travel Tours provided an excursion that went beyond my expectations. Amadou Barry, our guide and the owner of Agsil Senegal Travel Tours, knows the area and has many contacts throughout the region. I was provided with an experience I will never forget. I cannot say that our tour did not have hiccups because it did. But, I can say that Amadou Barry always had a contingency plan readily available when needed. I will use Agsil Senegal Travel Tours again. Amadou Barry and his staff were more than experts on the region. They were courteous, friendly, and experts in customer care services.

Fantastic experience
Amadou Barry is an incredible tour guide. He is so kind and knowledgable about both Senegal and the Gambia. He speaks several languages which helps to get anything needed accomplished. Our tour had several "bumps in the road" along the way - Amadou got us out of all of them - working very hard, but keeping the tour smooth and well run. We were exposed to incredible cultural activities, people, foods, boat rides, music, dance, museums - just everything. Quite fantastic. Whether planning a shorter or possible longer trip to this area, I highly recommend using Agsil Senegal/Amadou Barry.
Response from the operator: Agsil tours was delighted to show you the various sites in Senegal and the Gambia. Many thanks Wendy

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
12 days Private Tour Package in Senegal and the Gambia: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dakar.
How much does 12 days Private Tour Package in Senegal and the Gambia cost?
+
Prices start at $4,167 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dakar usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 12 days Private Tour Package in Senegal and the Gambia take?
+
Plan for about 288 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dakar is not rushed.
Is 12 days Private Tour Package in Senegal and the Gambia worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dakar, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 12 days Private Tour Package in Senegal and the Gambia?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 12 days Private Tour Package in Senegal and the Gambia suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 288-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 12 days Private Tour Package in Senegal and the Gambia?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dakar can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dakar and add a light layer if any part of the 288-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 12 days Private Tour Package in Senegal and the Gambia start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dakar within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Dakar?
+
On Outty we rank every Dakar experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Explore Dakar and Gorée Island full day, Taxi DSS to DAKAR,SALY,RIU HOTEL,SOMONE ( please check Options), Full-Day DAKAR city / GOREE Island Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Dakar?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Dakar?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in 12 days Private Tour Package in Senegal and the Gambia?
+
Included: Private transportation; Lunch; Dinner; and Breakfast. Not included: Beverage. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does 12 days Private Tour Package in Senegal and the Gambia include hotel pickup?
+

+
