Highlights

Located just 90 minutes from Dakar, the Bandia Wildlife Reserve is a true ecological crown jewel of Senegal. The reserve has successfully reintroduced a stunning array of native flora and many of Africa’s most iconic animals—species that had previously vanished due to poaching and habitat loss. You’ll encounter white rhinoceros, zebras, giraffes, buffalo, and a vast array of antelopes—from the majestic giant eland to the rare damas gazelle. The reserve is also home to monkeys, crocodiles, ostriches, and over 120 bird species. Our private pickup service offers an intimate safari experience, giving you the time and proximity needed to capture perfect photos and videos. Best of all, your entrance fees are fully covered for a seamless, hassle-free adventure.

About Dakar

Dakar, the capital of Senegal, sits on the Cap-Vert peninsula, the westernmost point of mainland Africa, a city of markets, music and ocean beaches.

Dakar occupies the tip of the Cap-Vert peninsula, jutting into the Atlantic at the westernmost point of mainland Africa. The city mixes colonial boulevards with busy markets such as Sandaga and fishing beaches where painted pirogues unload at Soumbédioune. The African Renaissance Monument, a huge bronze statue of a man, woman and child on a hilltop at Ouakam, overlooks the coast.

Top-ranked sights in Dakar: Gorée Island, Maison des Esclaves, Lake Retba (Lac Rose).
