Holidays in Senegal

Senegal
Senegal has a flourishing vegetation, with its hundred - years old baobabs. It counts many natural sites. Located between the Sahel and the tropical forest, Senegal is crossed by four rivers with sources in the Fouta Djalon in Guinea: the Senegal River, the Gambia, the Saloum and the Casamance.

Thione Diop
Spend two amazing weeks in an ocean front community overlooking Goree Island and the beautiful city of Dakar. Thione's family home hugs the beach along the Atlantic Ocean. Here you will be well taken care of while you have the opportunity to study with Thione and many of the masters of drum and dance that were his mentors! Thione is excited to be able to offer this journey to share the culture he loves. As you study and relax, you will also have a chance to explore and experience life in Senegal. Go to an African wrestling contest, visit a tailor to commission a special outfit, wander through the markets or just enjoy a walk along the beach.

Most of the tourists probably come for the sandy beaches, but for travelers with wider interests the country also has many other things to offer both in culture and nature.
