Mamadou Dia is as good of a tour guide as you will find in the country of Senegal. He was thorough, attentive and patient as I soaked up all the information he was giving me during our tourist adventures. Dia is very experienced in the various routes through the city and was very accomodating with me on my desires and expectations for a formal tour of the city region. His timeliness was his best asset. Moreover, Dia gave sound information on the best parts of what to see in Dakar. I am very glad and fortunate to have connected with him as he has enriched my vacation to his beloved homeland. His pride and passion as a tour guide was beneficial to my new found understanding of Senegal.
