Review of my trip through Gambia and Senegal from December 23, 2025 to January 01, 2026 I was picked up on time by guide and driver Mr. Ansu Jawara who accompanied me excellently throughout the 10-day trip. He was a very enthusiastic birdwatcher and because of his knowledge he was called '"Professor" by colleagues. He was happy to have me as a photographer because he was in the process of setting up a Website and many fine photos I took he may use for this. Where internet was not available I was able to share my phone with him. I had not managed to activate the E-sim of TourRadar. The accommodations were adequate by African standards, except for the two nights in Senegal where the accommodations looked neglected and electricity was not always available. Not even a chair was available in the cabin. The food was good there, by the way, as well as at other locations. Twice the guide himself had arranged a picnic lunch and it tasted excellent. He also always had plenty of bottles of water in the car. The excursions were of a high standard where the guide managed to find many interesting local places. One serious drawback was the quality of the approx 25 year old Peugeot 206. It showed serious starting problems where the car had to be pushed five times with assistance. Along the way a shock absorber was rattled loose after which the car made an uncontrolled movement. After repairs we were able to continue. On the last day the alternator was replaced, but it did not work so we ended up with a dead battery. After contacting the office, the car was exchanged by a Mercedes so that I was dropped off at Banjul airport on time. Unfortunately, due to weather conditions there, the flight to Schiphol was cancelled and we were put up in Hotel Relax. With luck, I was able to fly back to Schiphol the next day. All's well that ends well of this fantastic trip. Kind regards, Piet KramerShow more
