Gambia
Destination - The Gambia - In contrast to its all-enveloping neighbour, Senegal, and the massive nations surrounding them, The Gambia looks like a sliver in the side of Africa. True, it ranks among the continent's tiniest countries, but its attractions are just as bright and bold-faced as any in the region. Its capital city, Banjul, is a uniquely African experience, with a bustling marketplace and enough streetside culture to chase away the holiday daze of glitzier cities. And for an even more 'traditional' outlook, a quick trip upriver brings you into the Gambian heartland, where the colourful buzz of weekly markets vies with boat trips through mangrove creeks and bike jaunts to mud-hut villages for your time and appreciation.

The Republic of the Gambia - This snake-shaped West African country follows the river Gambia. If you take a boat upriver, you'll see all kinds of wildlife, including hippos. With your jungle hat and some tropical clothing, you'll be set to explore. Since the climate is pleasant compared to much of West Africa, it should be an enjoyable trip! What do you suppose it was like, though, back in the days of the slave ships? Learn about the history of this land here at the official government page.
