Bandia Reserve and Lac Rose Private Trip

If you can't decide between a safari in the Bandia Reserve or enjoying the waters of beautiful Lac Rose, then why not choose both with our comprehensive trip from Dakar.

Private Trip Details

Pickup will occur at the scheduled time from your hotel in Dakar, heading first to Bandia Nature Reserve. Here, you will discover a forest of baobab trees native to the African savanna.

Upon arrival in Bandia, we will transition from the bus to an all-terrain vehicle for an adventure in this large nature reserve. This is a chance to take part in an African safari and encounter zebras, rhinos, giraffes, monkeys, buffalos, and ostriches in their natural habitat.

After the nature reserve tour, we will proceed to Lac Rose (the Pink Lake), historically the final stage of the Paris-Dakar Rally until 2008. You will have free time to eat, followed by an exciting 4x4 tour around the lake, renowned for its pink waters, which are only separated from the ocean by sand dunes.

Visitors can observe inhabitants extracting salt using traditional methods. If time permits, you may also enjoy a 15-minute dip in the pink waters. The tour concludes with a return trip to Dakar, lasting approximately 9 to 10 hours from the start of the activity.
