Beskrivning

Enjoy a unique day between the historic island of Gorée and the city of Dakar. Explore the iconic sights, history, and culture of Senegal on a day trip full of discoveries.
Just 3 km off the coast of Dakar, the Île de Gorée reveals itself, small in size but
with a vast history. A poignant testimony to three centuries of slavery, it is
now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Accessible by boat with several
departures per day, the island offers an unforgettable journey back in time.
The tour begins with the Slave House, the last remaining building still standing in Gorée, from where
millions of men, women, and children were torn from their land to be
deported to American plantations.
Lunch is planned on the island, allowing you to enjoy the peaceful and unique atmosphere of this
place steeped in history.
In the afternoon, return to Dakar to immerse yourself in the vibrant Senegalese capital:
Independence Square, a symbol of a free
Senegal,
The National Assembly, a witness to political life,
Dakar Cathedral and the Grand Mosque,
architectural gems,
The former train station, a remnant of the colonial
past,
The Presidential Palace, residence of the head of state,
The colorful Kermel Market with its
spices, fabrics, and handicrafts,
The majestic Monument to the African Renaissance,
a symbol of the continent's renewal.
