A Meaningful Journey Through Gorée and Dakar
This tour offered a fascinating introduction to both Gorée Island and Dakar, bringing together Senegal’s history, culture and contemporary identity. Gorée was undoubtedly a highlight. Beyond the beauty of its colourful colonial streets, Atlantic views and local art, visiting the House of Slaves provided a deeper understanding of the island’s connection to the history of the transatlantic slave trade. The contrast between the island’s beauty and its difficult past made the visit particularly meaningful. Back in Dakar, the tour provided a broader perspective on the capital through its markets, cathedral and city landmarks, culminating at the African Renaissance Monument. It was interesting to move from Gorée’s historical legacy to a symbol of Senegal and Africa looking towards the future. A rewarding day that allowed me to appreciate the beauty of Gorée while gaining a better understanding of Dakar and Senegal, from the complexities of the past to the aspirations of the future.

Very nice day safari at Bandia Reserve
A representative was at the pier with a sign with my name waiting to pick us up. We rode in a very nice van to the wildlife reserve. At the park we rode in an open vehicle and we were able to see many animals such as zebras, monkeys, giraffes, buffalo, rhinos, ostriches, alligators, etc. that roam freely in the very large reserve. The reserve was about an 1 1/2 hour ride from the pier and we spent about 2 hours there. Then we rode about an hour to a lagoon where we we able to ride in a boat and we're delighted to see many waterfowl. We returned to our ship without worry.

Safari and a tasty lunch
The safari was very satisfying. It's important to get to Bandia Park as early as possible because this safari is quite popular. My favorite animals to see were rhinos, many monkeys, warthogs, and giraffes -including baby giraffes. Following the safari we had a tasty meal of jollof rice at a restaurant in the Medina nieghborhood of Dakar. Our guide Mamadou was an excellent driver and thoroughly knowledgeable.

Lovely day in Dakar
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.
