Let a qualified tourist guide introduce you to the stunning birdlife and nature of the Gambia.
Although the Gambia is one of Africa's smallest countries it is quickly becoming a popular eco-tourism destination. The River Gambia provides an ideal habitat for abundant birdlife, dolphins, hippos, crocodiles and monkeys and there are several national parks as well. If you are interested in the birds and wildlife of the Gambia we recommend that you employ a professional guide who will be able to take you to the best spots and provide you with plenty of background information. Whether you are in the Gambia for a week's birdwatching trip or just want to get a taste of the country's superb wildlife in an afternoon, Lamin Sanyang will help you to get the most out of your visit.
Having trained in South Africa, Lamin returned to the Gambia and now works as a professional tourist guide for independent travellers and with such holiday companies as Hidden Gambia. With his extensive knowledge of the Gambia's wildlife he is a valuable source for the visitor.
Trips include early morning creek excursions where you will inevitably spot herons, egrets, egyptian plovers and king fishers among others, trips up-river where you have a chance to see hippos, chimpanzees and dolphins, and serene nature walks for birdwatching which may take you to bee eater colonies rarely discovered by independent tourists.
