The Journey From Senegal

Your driver will pick you up from your hotel and you will then drive between 45 minutes to 2 hours along a good tarmac road passing through the Senegalese countryside and African thatched villages, stopping for refreshments when necessary. You will then arrive at the border crossing where your driver will take care of all of the formalities and drive you for approximately a further 20 minutes along a bumpy road.

Once you arrive at the port in Barra you can experience the hustle and bustle before boarding the ferry to Banjul. Generally you will make 45 minute crossing as a car passenger, although at busy times it may be necessary to make the crossing as a foot passenger; however, you will be escorted at all times. The ferry can be crowded and a real experience so is not for the faint hearted. From here you will be driven to your Gambian hotel.

Getting there can be a bit of an expedition but is a fascinating experience in itself, a good sense of humour is needed as ferry times can be erratic and local conditions can from time to time cause plans to change!

We would recommend that you travel in loose cotton clothing and comfortable flat shoes/sandals.
