During this two-day excursion you will get the real Africa feeling
At 09:00 you will be picked up at your hotel.
We start the day with a visit to Abuko where we will visit a large animal market. From all over Gambia sheep, goats and cows are brought to the market to be sold. You can witness the negotiation skills of the owners.
After that we will go Brikama where we will visit a colourful market. Many Gambian people come here to buy their groceries. Local people come here to buy vegetables, fruit, fish, cloths, shoes and so on. Besides the local products, tourists can also buy souvenirs.
From there we will drive to the inlands of the Gambia. You will see more of the local way of life. On the way we will stop a few times to enjoy the nature and ricefields.
By noon, we arrive at AbCa’s Creek Lodge. This lodge is located on a tributary of the Gambia River in the village Kassagne. We will welcome you with our local welcome-drink. We will have lunch and you will be amazed by the magnificent view you will have on the river.
After lunch you can take a nice swim in AbCa’s Creek (don’t forget your swimmingclothes), go for a walk or just relax.
In the afternoon we will have a walking tour in the beautiful surroundings of AbCa’s. Your guide is very experienced and will definitely show you different kind of monkeys, a lot of birds and the beautiful palm forest.
In the evening we will serve you a delicious local dinner.
Afterwards you can make your own choice how to spend your time. Please note that the bar is open and we serve all kinds of different beverages. Coffee, tea, soft drinks and alcoholic beverages are widely available.
You will be awakened early because we are going to take a boat trip through the mangroves before breakfast. At sunrise, most animals are visible. With a traditional boat, your guide will sail you through the mangroves. This will be an unforgettable experience. You will see colorful birds, monkeys, and other animals.
After the boat trip, breakfast will be ready.
We will take a bike ride through the surroundings with the guide. During weekdays, we will visit a school. Unfortunately, this is not possible during weekends and holidays.
We will visit a family in a compound. We prefer to visit one where tourists are not common visitors. During this visit, you will see what the daily life of the people looks like and you will get to know their customs and habits.
Around noon, you will have lunch at AbCa’s Creek Lodge.
We will drive towards the coast to the fishing village of Tanji. In the afternoon, the fishermen return with their catch and sell the fish on the beach. You will be amazed by the various types of fish that can be seen. One of the biggest fishes is the barracuda.
After the fish market, we will drop you off at your hotel.
