Description

Discover Senegal’s wildlife and natural wonders on a private full-day trip from Dakar. Enjoy a 4x4 safari in Bandia Reserve and visit the iconic Pink Lake with a boat ride.
Begin your adventure with a convenient pickup from your hotel or Airbnb in Dakar or Saly. Head to the Bandia Wildlife Reserve, a protected area known for its rich variety of African animals. Once there, switch vehicles and enjoy a 2-hour safari in a 4x4, with chances to see white rhinoceros, giraffes, zebras, monkeys, and more.

Next, continue to Lake Retba (Pink Lake), famous for its striking color. To get the best views (and the best photos), take a boat tour on the lake and observe the traditional work of salt harvesting. You’ll also have time to walk around, take pictures, and (optionally) stop for lunch before heading back.
