Ngor Faye. Guía de tours.fs - Travel as a couple to visit Senegal. Before the summer we were recommended to this Guide (Ngor) that we prepared several routes depending on the days we were in the country. We were with some concern because of the situation in the country. But as soon as our new friend picked us up at the airport, we saw the hospitality and made us feel at home. Our route being only 6 days was based on visiting "the most important thing" (Dakar, island of goree, pink lake, mbour, sine saloum...) Every day we slept in a "charming local" accommodation and visited the area, in the afternoon we moved to continue our adventure. The route included half board and Ngor(24h guide - friend forever) always watching over us so we were comfortable and not worry about anything. The free time we had officially, Ngor worried about making alternative plans (markets, arrival of fishermen, and areas that we would not have gone x our account) The most important thing about this trip was the connection with our Guide. Friendly, responsible,respectful, explanatory and very knowledgeable of the culture and history of your country. Over the days and with the mutual trust we took, the trip seemed more like a lifelong friend showing you his country, rather than going with a Guide. One day we spent near his house and "forced" him to stop to greet his family, the surprise was the spectacular treatment we received despite the language (at that time we understood because it is called the country of hospitality) On the last day the sadness was felt in the atmosphere x our return home. Ngor dedicated some sincere words to us that made us cry at 3. We will return safely to visit Senegalese and our friend. I recommend it 100% I leave Instagram for you to see photos and stories: tours.fs #FS tours Trips Thank you so much for every friend

Amazing guide and driver for an unforgettable tour of Senegal and the Gambia! - My friend and I chose to book our 8-day tour of Senegal and the Gambia with Mika at Trip Tour Senegal. We are so happy that we did and had an amazing adventure and experience! From the start of our conversation by email/Whatsapp, Mika was very responsive and helpful. He was also flexible based on our flight schedules and also what we wanted to see. We had a warm welcome at Dakar airport. Then over the next few days we were driven by Samba, who is friendly, reliable and a very safe driver. Mika, our guide, is knowledgeable and speaks many languages! We mostly had our tour in English with a little bit of French so I could practice, and some key words he taught us in Woloff. We focused on seeing a bit of the cities, cultural and wildlife highlights. The local guides that Mika chose were friendly and knowledgeable. Also, we were happy that we were supporting some of the village economy at the places we visited. It's hard to say what our favourite thing was to do. It was a big variety from city tours to relaxing time at the beach to lion and monkey walks, Bandia wildlife reserve safari, Gambia river cruise to Baboon island, trying local food, Wassu Stone circle (UNESCO), Touba Mosque, crocodile pond, and more. He chose great places to stay which were clean and comfortable. The one very basic night was in Wassu, as that is more in the countryside of Gambia. One of our favourite food experiences was a home-cooked Senegalese thieboudienne (fish, vegetables and rice) made by our driver's wife. Wonderful and they were so welcoming! All of the extended family came to say hello and welcome. We felt very special that evening. Thank you Mika and Samba! You definitely deserve the 5-star review! Hope to meet again one day and we will recommend you to any friends who visit Senegal

Wonderful experience of West Africa! - We had a custom 8 day tour with Mika as our guide and Samba as our driver, starting in Dakar and ending in Banjul. Before booking, Mika was very flexible and responsive in helping us work out an itinerary that fit our schedules and our desired sights. Once we got there, Mika was an amazing host. His English is perfect, he has lots of local knowledge and connections and is able to adapt on the go and ensure you have a great time regardless of unexpected local events. Samba was a competent, safe and pleasant driver. We had a wonderful time and I'd enthusiastically recommend Mika to anyone travelling to this part of the world!

Journey through northwest Senegal - We just returned from an eight-day trip to Senegal, from December 2nd to 10th. The experience has been wonderful. Given the little time we had to organize it, we decided to hire a local guide, and we contacted Diokel; He proposed a program that included a visit to the Bandia reserve, to the Lompoul desert, where we slept one night, a view of Mbour, to see the port and the arrival of the fishermen, Sino Saloum, Palmarin..., we liked it and we liked it. we hire The choice could not have been more correct, everything we hired went as planned, but he also improvised other interesting visits, he speaks Spanish, he is in love with his country, he knows the roads, the places to eat. The food deserves a broader comment: we always ate local food, dishes that Senegalese eat every day, we liked everything a lot, from our experience I can say that in Senegal the food is very good. In short, and although there are surely more beautiful areas, what we have seen seemed very good to us. I leave the name of the guide's website, it is the best that can be hired: www.senegaldecouverte.com, and the email: [email protected]

Pink lake, Gorée, great Mosque of Dakar, Bandia, Somone lagoon, Mar Lodj, Saint Louis - We spent 2 wonderful weeks with our guide Mamadou. Mamadou is full of good advice, good addresses, he is caring and never left us alone even during the negotiations 😂. Listening, he quickly identifies everyone's tastes and desires and anticipates all the fruits for our 2 and a half year old Loulou, the menus and the quantities for each. Always available and attentive and meeting his family to end our vacation was just great. Mar Lodj simply unforgettable. Initially we were thinking of renting a car with hindsight no regrets a driver allows you to free your mind and drive in Dakar 😱. Looking forward to returning to Senegal.

Mika is the Mayor of Dakar! - Mika is knowledgeable, professional and kind.Everyone know him in Senegal.He was flexible with our group and found ways to meet our requests. He created an action packed itinerary for Senegal and Gambia that include food, culture and history. As someone who loves historical sites I was so happy I was able to experience new places as well as learning so much about them.

Family Trip of a Lifetime! - My family and I just got back from a 7 day tour with Mika and hands down one of THE BEST trips we’ve taken. Before the trip started Mika cultivated a 7 day itinerary that included all the highlights I wanted to see and took into account my children and what would be nice for them. We were able to experience Senegal in ways we never would have if it wasn’t for Mika. Mika spoke great English and is knowledgeable, professional and made sure we were comfortable and safe. His driver Ally was also amazing and made sure to get us us to our destinations safely. I would absolutely 10/10 recommend Mika and his team if you are wanting to get an experience of a lifetime in Senegal! Thanks again Mika🇸🇳❤️

Wonderful tour guide and great tour - I just completed the 8 day Senegal and Gambia tour with Mika and this was a fantastic trip. Mika is perhaps the best tour guide I've ever had. He did everything possible to make this trip stress-free and enjoyable. There were many activities each day and ample down-time to relax. Mika remained in regular contact with me for months in advance of the trip to make sure I had everything I needed and throughout the tour he was wonderful in an addressing any needs I had. I look forward to going on another tour with him in the future.
