Nature up close: Discover Senegal's breathtaking landscapes and wildlife
Senegal is not only rich in culture but also in stunning nature. Our group tours take you to the country's most beautiful national parks and nature reserves. The Djoudj National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a true bird paradise. Here, you can observe countless bird species and enjoy the unique landscape. The Niokolo-Koba National Park, another large reserve, is home to a diverse range of wildlife, including elephants, lions, monkeys, and crocodiles.
A particular highlight is Lac Rose, also known as Lake Retba, famous for its pink colour. This natural spectacle is caused by the high salt content of the lake and the microorganisms living in it.

Here, you can take a boat ride through the channels and observe the diverse wildlife.

We provide you with comprehensive information on safety aspects and give you tips on how to protect yourself from crime. Particularly in tourist areas, caution against pickpocketing is advised. Keep your valuables secure and avoid unnecessarily attracting attention.
Health precautions are also important. For Senegal, a yellow fever vaccination is mandatory. We also recommend vaccinations against tetanus, diphtheria, polio, hepatitis A and B, and meningococcal disease. Malaria prophylaxis is absolutely essential. Talk to your doctor about the necessary vaccinations and preventive measures. A travel medical kit with the most important medications should also not be lacking. Consider sun protection and insect repellent as well.
The Senegal tours point out that guided group trips overcome logistical challenges due to limited tourist infrastructure and language barriers, making them a preferred option for a relaxed experience. Our travel experts are always available to answer your questions and assist you in preparing for your trip. Stay informed about the current travel advice and safety regulations in advance.
