A BEACON OF STRENGTH

Our 2024 Senegal Cultural Heritage Tour welcomes you to experience the west African wonder of Senegal.   Home to the Wolof, Fula, Mandinka, Serer, and Jola people, Senegal is rich with cultural history, value, and strength.  Thousands of years saw the rise and fall of several empires, including the Ghana Empire, Mali Empire, and the Jolof Empire in these lands.  Today Senegal is culturally vibrant expressing through art, music, dance, literature and cuisine.

 Arrive in Dakar, where the stunning African Renaissance Monument, a beacon of strength, welcomes you back to your ancestral home.  Get ready to visit the Museum of Black Civilizations, IFAN Museum of African Art,  and Senegal’s Door of No Return at Goree Island.  Take a moment to honor your ancestors on this return journey.

This tour will introduce you to gorgeous landscapes, from sandy beaches and fishing villages to natural wonders including the Djoudi National Bird Sanctuary.   An UNESCO World Heritage site, Djoudi is home to many migratory birds and the stunning pink Lake Retba (also known as Lac Rose), famous for its high salt content and unique color.   Enjoy a boat ride around the lake and then proceed to Saint Louis for an overnight stay.

After a visit to Touba, the biggest mosque in west Africa, you’ll embark on a lion walk at the Fathala wildlife reserve.  Explore the shell island of Joal Fadiouth and end the tour with a visit to Mbour fishing village and local markets.  This trip has it all!
