The
Gambia is one of the most colourful parts of Africa.
Famed for its bird life the odd crocodile or two and it's flora
and fauna.
Let
traditional dancing and drumming form part of your holiday,
either at the Tanji Museum or a special entertainments evening
at the lodge.
We can arrange for the hire of a four wheel drive vehicle
complete with driver for your personal use during all of or part
of your stay, giving you the opportunity to discover The Gambia
at your leisure. |

If it's Barracuda, Lady Fish, Red Snapper, Grouper, Cassava,
Captain Fish, Butter Fish, Sun Pat, Stingray, Guitar Fish, Cat
Fish - to name but a few, just leave it to our experienced
Gambian Crew to drop anchor - they are better than any Fish
Finder - or if you prefer, have a lazy day cruising the calm
waters of the creeks. |

Try your hand at archery with an authentic African bow
or for the more energetic hire our new mountain bikes and

everywhere.

market, the school and the mosque, meet with the village people.

good half day out. |

Visit the Reptile Centre, a locally funded centre, their purpose
is to inform the Gambian people of the types and species of the
local reptiles and try to dispel their fear. Are you afraid. |
