Best Tour around Banjul - Highly reccommended! We were picked up by the lovely Jarry, the tour operator’s sister. She’s funny and witty and really made our experience one to cherish! 6/5 - would do again!

interesting tour - We enjoyed the city tour but especially our visit to the Albert market and the fishing village. These were authentic experiences that needed to be done with a local guide

It's a scam. Don't go - This is the worst tour from viator or ever. They tried to scam us into paying $60 to 2 additional sites. When we refused to pay, they said the other people in the mini bus already agreed and they had to find another driver. (We thought we had a private tour with 4 people instead of in a mini bus). As it turned out they said the same thing to the others. It's a scam and viator should return our money.

Worst Viator tour I have ever booked. - The tour operator never showed up at the agreed time of 9am. I called him, he answered the phone and hung up. I texted him several time and he didn't respond for several hours. He never said exactly where the pick up point was located. There were two main gates, one apparent from the dock and the other one hidden from the dock. Never made it clear which one to meet at. We were there but he wasn't. He finally responded via text and said he was on his way. I then asked exactly where and name of driver; he never responded to my questions. We were at the gate; he wasn't. It also happened to another older couple who were also stood up and didn't get the tour they paid for. Later his excuse was that his cell phone service wasn't working. How can you run a tour operation today without cellphone service. Very dirty with lots of single locals hanging around the gate all trying to get you into their car saying they were the tour company but none had IDs. I will never return this this place again and it's certainly not worth the $$.
