      TravelerWritten February 2022

      I would like the private tour price for one person for the Authentic Cultural Experience of Senegal,6 Days and The Best of Senegal,8 Days. I would plan on traveling at the end of June or the beginning of July.

    • Continent ToursOperatorWritten February 2022

      Authentic Cultural Tour of Senegal, 6 days is USD 3293.00. The Best of Senegal, 8 days is USD 4850.00. But note that the Djoudj Park is closed in June and July. So we will include an excursion an overnight in Lompoul instead of Djoudj.
