Private vehicle hire

A great way to explore The Gambia, it is possible to hire either a Land Rover or 4x4 vehicle, including a driver and guide, for your own use - either for a full or half day. Your Gambia Experience representative can suggest various itineraries for touring the area, or alternatively, why not plan your own stops and allow your guide to transport you between each of your desired locations? Whether it’s a deserted beach for relaxing on the golden sands or to witness the hustle and bustle of a fishing village, a canoe trip at Makasutu stopping at the neighbouring Horse and Donkey Sanctuary, or perhaps a visit to a local school or nature reserve; the choice of adventure is yours!

Private boat hire

Heading out onto the river for a day of meandering down the creeks of the mighty River Gambia is an unforgettable experience. Holiday-makers to The Gambia have the option of hiring a large African pirogue exclusively for their party, along with a crew and guide to accompany you for a relaxing and insightful day on the waterways.

Please note that entrance fees and refreshments are not included in the price of hiring a boat or vehicle.
