2-Days Gambia River Adventure withour client from Italy 🇮🇹
Day 1
Our adventure began with a convenient pickup from your accommodation before setting off on a scenic drive along the Trans-Gambia Highway.
Our first stop was the magnificent Senegambia Bridge near Farafenni. Stretching 1.9 kilometres across the River Gambia, this landmark bridge connects the northern and southern parts of the Gambia while providing an important link for travellers between northern Senegal and the Casamance region.
Next, we explored the lively Farafenni Market, where we experienced the vibrant markets live in the countryside.
We then continued to Kaur, where we had lunch at a hilltop restaurant while having a bird-eye view of the Gambia River.
Our journey took us to the famous Wassu Stone Circles, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Africa's most remarkable archaeological treasures.
During our guided tour, we learned about the fascinating history of Stone-circles of the Gambia 🇬🇲 and Senegambia region and more about ancient Gambian history and civilization.
The trip continued off the beaten track to Kuntaur, where we boarded a boat safari through the River Gambia National Park to visit the famous Chimpanzee Islands.
Established in 1979, this important conservation project has successfully reintroduced chimpanzees into their natural habitat, where they now live freely in the park.
We were fortunate to observed chimpanzees in the wild, along with hippopotamuses, baboons, red colobus monkeys, and a wide variety of beautiful birdlife, making this an unforgettable wildlife experience.
As the day came to an end, we drove to Laminkoto before arriving in the historic town of Janjanbureh (formerly Georgetown), where we stop for rest, dinner and overnight stay.
