DAY 1 : The tour starts at 7:00am from the lobby of your hotel and after perfectly packing our luggages, we drive off right away as we prepare for a trip like no other. We drive on the SeneGambia highway passing so many villages and hamlets as we sit nonchalantly to view the beauty of countrysides.
After about 3 hours of driving, we will have our first stop at Farafenni to have some fruits and snacks. Farafenni is a big commercial centre in the NBR(North Bank Region) just south of the border with Senegal. We will have a 20 minute walk in the market to see and experience real local market life in The Gambia. Afterwards,we will have a 15 minutes donkey/horse riding around the market to experience the local mode of transportation in the North Bank Region.
