A day in Dakar

Senegal is a small country, which makes day trips are easy to arrange, but the only way out of Dakar, which is a peninsula, is along one single road where drivers must navigate multiple obstacles: broken-down bush taxis, a bustling goat market and pedestrians who cross the street at will.

The stench of exhaust fumes will make you feel as if you have smoked a pack of cigarettes by the time you make it through, however, once you see the enchanting baobab trees dotting the landscape, colorful roadside markets, and beautiful beaches the smoke won’t matter.

On your trip to Dakar you can visit :

• Île de N'Gor
• Musée Théodore Monod
• African Renaissance Monument
• Mamelles Lighthouse
