Senegal
In Senegal, the hospitality of the Teranga people accompanies you at every turn, from the Atlantic beaches to the savannahs, from living traditions to cultural treasures.
Welcome to Senegal, a land of colour, culture and hospitality!
Located at the western end of Africa, Senegal is characterised by its diverse landscapes, which include golden beaches, savannahs, mangroves and deserts. This warm-hearted country invites you to discover its vibrant traditions, its enchanting music, its flavoursome gastronomy and its historical heritage, in particular the island of Gorée, a symbol of memory. From vibrant Dakar to colonial Saint-Louis, the Djoudj Park or the green Casamance, each region offers a unique experience. Senegal is also synonymous with the smiles of its people and the spirit of Teranga, the Senegalese art of hospitality.
The Must-sees of the trip

- Safari in an off-road vehicle in the Bandia ReserveJust 65 kilometres from Dakar, this private nature reserve offers you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the African savannah. On board an off-road vehicle, you can observe giraffes, zebras, rhinos, crocodiles, ostriches and many other species in their natural habitat. An animal guide accompanies the tour, which also includes the discovery of the sacred baobab tree, an ancient tree and traditional burial site.
