I love this beautifully and cuturally rich country and I look forward to sharing it with you. Whether you are traveling alone, with your family or a small group of friends, my customized tours can be built to your specifications and needs, and can accommodate up to 30 people or more. Please, send an inquiry if you have a large group. Here are some elements I hope you will consider as you choose your Guide. **I lived for 10 years in the USA, so I can offer you both an inside and external view of Senegal. In addition to helping me perfect my use of the English language, this time expanded my world view and hopefully will allow me to better understand and answer your questions about my country's culture and people. Instead of hiring support from various sources, I have collected a top-notch team of people during the last 20 years to assist me in providing you excellent care and support. ** In this predominantly French speaking country, all of my tours are solely conducted in ENGLISH. **I am fluent in English, French and Wolof. This allows me to communicate easily with you, and interprete for you, should you wish to' speak' with Locals. **I will show you in a short time, what you probably couldn't experience on your own, even with more time. **My goal is to connect with you and give you a wonderful experience. **These tours are tailor made to suit you. We can adapt them as we go to make sure you are spending your limited time doing those things of most interest to you. Given the many years I have been doing this, I feel that I am best able to do such tailoring since I know about travel time, traffic, schedules, etc. . **Even if you do not choose me as your Guide, I am happy to try and answer questions for you. You have a limited amount of time and there is much to see and do here. I don't want you to waste your precious time. My whole goal is to make sure visitors who use my service see the best Dakar has to offer, have fun and take home a memorable experience. In Dakar where OLD is NEW, HOT is COOL, anybody can be somebody at least for a while. LET ME SHOW YOU THE RIGHT WAY! . I am a veteran DAKAR tour Guide,licensed by the Department of Tourism and Accredited Hospitality Professional. My licence Number is: N.I.N.E.A 005685592 1989-1991:two years college with training in English language and literature. course work in American studies 1995- present:Escorted international visitors to SENEGAL and THE GAMBIA on custom designed educational and cultural tours 1996:I was awarded certificate of participation by the "GAINEY TOURS"during the SENEGAL-GAMBIA tours.

Overview of your Dakar tour

Leave Dakar in the morning and proceed for a 3-hour drive to the LOMPOUL desert. The drive offers a great view of rural life. Upon arrival, a 4WD jeep will pick us up and take us to the middle of the desert. A lovely and peaceful stay. This would be an ideal place to stay one night in VIP tents in the heart of the desert in a relaxing atmosphere. The tranquility of the place and the experience of the pureness of nature could be really impressive. Enjoy a traditional African Ballet performing under the constellations. The next day, you will also be given the opportunity to take a guided tour inside the Mosque in the holy city of TOUBA on your way back.
