TESTIMONIALS

Give us your opinion

We had a fantastic week-long road trip through Senegal, exploring the authentic continent, visiting Dakar and spending a night on the charming island of Gorée. The itinerary was packed and varied, ranging from a barbecue lunch on a secluded beach in the middle of the mangroves to sleeping in a tented camp in the desert, cooking with locals, sailing on traditional boats, dancing to the rhythms of the tam-tam drum, visiting a school, and even learning a few words of Wolof, the local language.

The accommodations were well-suited to the chosen itinerary: basic but equipped with the necessary amenities (always a shower with hot water, European-style toilet, air conditioning, and beds with mosquito nets). Often, there was also a lovely little pool, perfect for relaxing. Fresh and delicious local dishes were always provided.

The real highlight was our guide, Thiendou! He managed our trip perfectly, leaving us with no worries. He was extremely attentive and considerate, and shared various insights fluently in both French and English.

In short, an ideal way to discover the real Senegal!

This agency truly lives up to its name! Beyond the perfect accommodations close to nature, the ongoing communication with Rama from the local agency allowed us to create a trip that perfectly reflected our preferences. Once we arrived, she regularly checked in on us 😀
Drivers (Dave and Manou are great, special mention for Manou) and guides were always punctual and did not hesitate to answer all our questions and requests.
Our interactions with them and the local people were wonderful (hello to Maguet 😉) And what can I say about the scenery!!!
In short, pure bliss!
Contact Esprit d'Afrique and you won't be disappointed!!
