As the smallest country in West Africa, the Gambia is also one of the most accessible countries of sub-Saharan Africa - little over 6 hours flying time from Europe.

With a tropical climate and abundant sunshine, sparkling seas and long palm-fringed beaches, the Gambia has developed into a popular holiday destination for those in search of sun, sea and sand.

There is plenty on offer for the seasoned traveller too:  A peaceful multi-ethnic culture, some well-preserved historical sites, vibrant music and dance, a colouful array of more than 500 species of birds, and of course the River Gambia - a haven for nature lovers and those in search of a Gambia adventure holiday, discovery and experience.

The Gambia is also blessed with a wide choice of accommodation covering all tastes and budgets, a diverse cuisine and for those who seek more of an active Gambia holiday - river cruising, fishing, village tours, African wrestling, trekking, horse and camel riding, cycling and Gambian adventure trips are also available.
