Traditional Pirogue River Cruise: Your river adventure begins at Denton Bridge, where you'll board a traditional African pirogue.

The journey is deliberately slow-paced, giving you plenty of time to relax and enjoy the surroundings.
Relax on Deck: Comfortable mattresses are provided on the deck, allowing you to sit back, lie down, and enjoy the river at your own pace.
Spend the day: Relaxing on the deck; enjoying the river views; sunbathing; listening to the sounds of nature; taking photographs; and simply disconnecting from the usual pace of travel.
River Wildlife & Nature: During the cruise, look out for birds, fish, riverbank vegetation, and mangrove landscapes.
Note: Wildlife sightings depend on natural conditions and cannot be guaranteed.
Discover Local River Life: Observe the landscapes and communities connected to this important waterway. You'll have the opportunity to see everyday life around the river and learn about local traditions and the relationship between Gambian communities and the river. Your crew and guide will share information about the local environment and traditions during the experience.
River Swimming: Take a refreshing swim in the Gambia River when conditions are considered safe. Swimming is optional, so you can simply remain onboard and enjoy the cruise if you prefer.
Traditional Gambian Lunch Onboard: Enjoy a freshly prepared Gambian meal served onboard the pirogue.
