As many as 690 species have been observed in this small country. During this trip, we will do our best to spot as many species as possible or get the best possible pictures. Depending on where your preference lies. We start the trip just 20km from the airport, in a small and quiet village by the mangroves of the Tanbi wetlands. The trip starts here in our own guesthouse, or Mandinari River lodge ... depending on availability. At the Senegambia Birding lodge, you will be welcomed by the owner and given a word about your trip. Nearby and our own tropical garden and photography lodge, there are enough species to be photographed to fill the first few days. You'll then head inland to explore the authentic Gambia. Different environment, and different species.
