Tour to the Saloum Delta

Join us to explore a World Biosphere Reserve on this excursion to the Saloum Delta from Dakar! You can choose between a 1 or 2-day tour, depending on your preference.

Tour to the Saloum Delta

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Dakar and drive by minibus to the village of Ndangane, the gateway to the Saloum Delta National Park. The journey will take us about 2.5 hours.

Once we've arrived, we'll board a boat and start sailing through the mangroves at the confluence of the Sine and Salu rivers. During the 3-hour crossing, we'll admire the landscape and view typical villages such as Mar Fafako, Mar Souloum, or Mar Lodj. We'll also observe the lifestyle of the Fulani people.

We will be able to see numerous birds, including pelicans, herons, and cormorants, that migrate through this Biosphere Reserve.

Afterward, we'll return to Ndangane for lunch, featuring a typical Senegalese dish. The tour lasts between 10-12 hours.

2-Day Excursion

For a more immersive experience, consider the 2-day excursion to the Saloum Delta. The itinerary will be similar, but we will have additional time to enjoy the landscapes. We'll stay for 1 night in the region and experience the stars.

Accommodation will be at the Essamaye camp and includes lunch and dinner on the first day and breakfast on the second day. The tour will conclude at approximately 2 pm on day 2 back at your hotel in Dakar.
