For the fisherman...
The Gambia offers fantastic fishing for enthusiasts as well as holidaymakers with a casual interest. You can book a days fishing through our representatives in The Gambia but if you are looking for a complete fishing package you may need to consider tides and seasons, therefore we recommend you contact the specialists World Sport Fishing. They have an encyclopaedic knowledge of fishing possibilities in The Gambia and will advise you on the best dates for your trip and ensure you get the best out of the fantastic boat, beach and freshwater fishing that is available.
For birdwatchers...
We are able to offer a choice of three tours solely dedicated to the birdwatcher including Plover and Tanji, and our popular 3-day trip with Chris Packham with the option of spending time upriver at Chimpanzee Island. In addition to our own birdwatching tours, we have worked closely for many years with specialists offering fully escorted birdwatching holidays in The Gambia. Numbers for these tours are strictly limited so we suggest you book as early as possible. For more information including tour details, departure dates, availability and prices, please contact each company direct. info@birdfinders.co.uk www.birdfinders.co.uk
Trips through the bush...
Visiting local villages, can be arranged in a number of ways, either on foot, on horseback, in 4x4 vehicles, or in horse drawn buggies. Visitors can then take in the colourful markets, the local artisans at work, village festivities or purely experience village life Gambian style. A warm reception from the locals is always guaranteed.
Hotel Facilities & Activities...
We have a wide selection of hotels with swimming pools and sunbathing terraces and some offer a selection of other sporting activities such as tennis, table tennis, mini golf, horse riding, kayaking, mountain bikes and pétanque. Any hotel can be twinned with a holiday in Senegal, please ask our reservations team for details.
Evenings in The Gambia..
In the evenings, guests have the choice of staying within their hotel or enjoying dinner and drinks in the wide range of restaurants and bars either nearby or a short taxi ride away. Most hotels offer some form of evening entertainment, varying from a single kora player to a lively stage show or an African dance troupe. Las Vegas it isn't, but there are a number of bars, a few clubs and three casinos, located mainly in Kololi, Kotu and South Kotu.
