Africa is a unique continent, full of character and diversity, making every trip unforgettable. Its contrasts are fascinating: you can explore the national parks of the Serengeti in Tanzania, experience mountain gorillas in Uganda, or discover the wildlife and plants of Madagascar, with its endemic species and unique landscapes.

Some of our destinations are more popular than others. In this post, we highlight three places we particularly like that often fly under most travellers’ radar.
If you ask us... this is what we advise.
A few kilometres from the Atlantic coast lies a surprising place: Lompoul, a desert of sand dunes dotted with eucalyptus groves. Here we stay in a camp of traditional tents (Mauritanian luxury), with time to enjoy the dunes and take a camel ride to watch a magnificent sunset.
Perhaps Senegal does not have a Taj Mahal or a Machu Picchu, but the variety of landscapes and surprises we find every day make it one of the most valued trips in our post-travel surveys.
Cruising the Senegal River aboard the legendary Bou el Mogdad is quite an experience. Departures from October 2021 to May 2022
Sailing aboard this iconic vessel and visiting places far from the tourist trail are two of the attractions of this trip to Senegal. In colonial times, this waterway was important for trade between the continent’s interior and the Atlantic, until access to the sea became blocked to large vessels, leaving the Bou el Mogdad as the only boat.
We've been waiting for you!
The Country of the Teranga has opened its doors to the citizens of the European Union!
Without quarantine, we can go back to Senegal!
Teranga – a Wolof word – often described as a mixture of hospitality, solidarity and respect. But, as the Senegalese say, it is much more: a way of life, a set of values that guides their lives.
