Looking for a winter getaway with plenty on offer, then look no further than our Senegal tour in January 2027. This African nation is blessed with a large bird count and some really cool birds among them, such as Scissor-tailed Kites at the only known large roost in the World, boat trips to see Egyptian Plovers and Northern Carmine and Red-throated Bee-eaters, and White-crested Tiger-Heron. In the savannas of the north we will seek out Cricket Longtail, Little Gray Woodpecker and the outstanding Golden Nightjar (at a roost site), while wetlands in the same part of Senegal are home to Black Crowned-Cranes, among thousands upon thousands of other wetland birds. Other specialties on the tour include Quail-plover, Savile's Bustard, African Finfoot, Abyssinian Ground Hornbill, Mali Firefinch, and Pel's Fishing-Owl. Oh, and Four-toed Hedgehog in our hotel gardens!
