Ein unglaublich toller Tag. Die Fahrt im "Monstertruck" durch die kleinen Dörfer, das authentische Bild des echten Gambias, das vermittelt wurde, der Schulbesuch, der Marktbesuch, das Fischerdorf, .... Es war einfach toll!

De reis was goed georganiseerd, onze gids wist en vertelde veel en het is leuk achteraf video-opname van de dag te kunnen kopen. Het reiden in een open truck vonden we echt fantastisch! We hebben een leuke en interessante dag gehad.

It was interesting to see Gambia. There were a lot of long stops for unexplained reasons. Getting in and out of the vehicle was hazardous. Seemed expensive for what was provided.

geweldige dag gehad; gids wist geanimeerd en veel te vertellen. Monstertruck kan wel wat onderhoud gebruiken, aantal kapotte stoelen. Aanbeveling: zet in de beschrijving dat deze tour niet geschikt is voor mensen met krukken of rolstoel, omdat je anders de truck niet in/uit komt via de ladder. Ook niet voor mensen met rugproblemen vanwege de slechte wegen en slechte vering truck. Verkoop van flesjes water in de truck ook geen overbodige luxe.

Keep was an excellent tour guide. Michael the cameraman appeared to capture key moments. Only thing that would have made the tour even better was wishing tgat we could spend longer at Paradise Beach after lunch to enjoy the surroundings.

Fun day out in a safari truck. Guide Kalle was very informative. Enjoyed visit to the hectic market in Serrekunda and the school. Remember to take treats on this trip for the children. We took packs of coloured pencils. Paradise Beach did not live up to its name. The beach smelt of fish as there were a lot of small dead fish left by the fishermen on the sand.

Toen we in het vliegtuig zaten kwamen we erachter dat we in de Boeing 737 max (8) zaten en wetende na het zien van de netflix documentaire Downfall dat deze vliegtuigen niet vanuit veiligheidsoogpunt maar winstoogpunt gemaakt zijn was een minder fijn gevoel. Helaas zat er in dit vliegtuig ook geen scherm en met een vlucht van 6 uur is dit toch wel gewenst. Kwa organisatie, transfers en informatie verschaffing was alles zeer goed geregeld.
