5.00We were six friends for a 15-day stay in Saly. It was perfect! We are absolutely delighted with our experience with Senegal Excursions, from the preparations beforehand with Fatou to the organization and punctuality on-site. Max and Omar were caring, super kind; Max is a fantastic guide, very attentive and considerate; and Omar is an excellent driver, very patient. They pampered us. We took many excursions (Dakar Gorée, bush market day, village, school, pink lake, Joal Fadiouth, Somone lagoon on quads, arrival of fishermen and market in Mbour, Bandia reserve and lion ranch, St. Louis and desert bivouac in Lompoul, Sine Saloum canoe, bush evening with dances and wrestling, and everything went very well. Great friendly moments shared ....... Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! We are thinking of you! We send you hugs, we already miss you Chantal, Guy; Daniel, Claudie; Patrice, Maryline
