Activity itinerary

Goree Island

  • 3h
Accompanied by our official guide, we will make a visit of profound historical importance to the Maison des Esclaves. In this sacred space of memory, we will tour its rooms and look at the iconic "Door of No Return," understanding with rigour and sensitivity the legacy of the transatlantic slave trade. After this trip to the past, we will take some time to enjoy the peace of the island with a full lunch (paid separately) at a selected restaurant overlooking the sea. It will be the perfect occasion to taste the authentic flavours of Senegal, such as fresh fish or the emblematic Thiéboudienne, before returning to the continent.

Le Monument de la Renaissance Africaine

In the afternoon, back in the capital, we will head towards the great milestones of Senegalese modernity. The first big challenge will be the Monument to African Renaissance, a colossal bronze structure that surpasses the Statue of Liberty in height. Here we launch a challenge to the most intrepid: climb your 198 stairs to reach the summit and be rewarded with the most spectacular 360° panoramic view of the entire peninsula.

Mosque of the Divinity

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket not included
We will continue our tour along the coast along the Corniche, making a mandatory photo stop at the Mosque of Divinity, whose silhouette seems to float magically over the Atlantic waves.

Dakar

indicate: we will visit the local markets at the end of the day to see real life in the Senegalese capital.

The day will conclude in the most relaxed way, with a direct transfer that will drop you back at your hotel door or at the pickup point as agreed
