Turaco Birding Expeditions is headed by the professional bird guide Musa Jatta. We design specific itineraries according to your needs and length of the excursion, to watch as many species as possible and search for the most elusive ones. Photographic and filming opportunities in good light conditions are excellent. Depending on the group size, we travel with either a 7-sitter or 14-sitter Toyota

We had a fantastic stay at Lemonfish and wished we could have stayed longer than the two nights we spent there. Hannie and her staff made us feel welcome and "at home" from the start. They are so friendly, smiling and easy-going! The guesthouse is simple (2 shared bathrooms, 4 twin rooms) but clean and very quiet. The walls are covered with African art (batiks and paintings). The sandy garden is very agreeable, with trees, flowers and sunbeds for you to relax on. The food is delicious. Do you know someone who claims s/he doesn't like vegetables? Bring them to Hannie's and they will change their mind! We also appreciated the fact that there was fresh fruit for dessert. We also liked the location of the guesthouse: on the way to the bird reserve of Kartong, where you can see many different species of birds. We recommend Hannie's guesthouse whole-heartedly, and hope we can come back soon! Céline and Michel

I visited reptile park with Black and White tours who were good. My guide from Black and White took great pictures. We were guided around park by their guide, a young girl who was good. I held a royal python, a baby crocodile and was lucky to hold a big rock python with their keeper.

The Natural Culture and History Museum is the only indigenous natural, life, traditional medicine and cultural history museum in Gambia. It is located in the natural environment comprising the natural habitats for the remaining fauna and flora. This is the only museum where nature can be experienced and our guests can see our remaining tree and animal species.

Lamin the owner of this museum is a truly great guy. His passion for his country, his culture and his desire to learn from others and share his knowledge is intoxicating. An upcoming museum for sure and a definite place to see if you in Gunjur. Lamin and the museum curator work so well together, time just flies when you're there.
7. Tanji / Karinti Bird Reserve

This reserve contains about 295 species of birds.
Reviewed By nickbowkett - Stroud, United Kingdom
My wife and visited the reserve recently, we are not birdwatchers but we both thought it was an amazing experience. We spent about two hours in the park with Park ranger and guide Lamin who had an encyclopaedic knowledge of the birds and surrounding reserve. We saw around 40 species in a relatively short space of time for a ridiculously small amount of money. A good tip is to get your taxi driver to pick you up at the opposite end of the park to where you started, you see a lot more as you don’t double back over similar ground. The terrain was easy and I gained the impression you could spend all day there if you were a keen birdwatcher. We saw Hornbills, sun birds, Bee Eaters, Six Ospreys, Caspian Terns etc etc

Wow there's been lots of things happening at Big Tree Garden Abou has been busy working in the garden building his Palmstick masterpiece. He managed to find a partner who collaborates with him on Big Tree. The plants are coming along now they have easy access to water. The wildlife come to pay regular visits. It's a peaceful venue for Birdwatchers. Not forgetting sampling Abou's juices and smoothies. So if you fancy respite from the sun come and chillax, and commune with nature.

The fishermen bring their fish to the beach, the women get this from the boats and sell it on the beach. A very crowding scene but a lot a variety in fish. Full coloured people, Smoking of the fish, etc. Take your camera or video and you have a busy time!
