Few West Africa tours venture this deep into the continent’s interior. This 14-day journey through Mali, Burkina Faso, and Senegal takes you to UNESCO World Heritage cities, ancient mosques, Sahel landscapes, and the vibrant Atlantic coast — covering three countries that most travellers never see. Ideal for adventurous travellers from the UK, USA, Canada, and Europe looking for an authentic, off-the-beaten-path West Africa travel experience.
For members of the West African diaspora in the UK, USA, and Canada, this tour carries special weight. Gorée Island in Senegal was one of the largest slave-trading centres on the African coast. Djenné and Timbuktu were global centres of Islamic scholarship and trade at a time when Europe was in the Middle Ages. This West Africa tour reconnects travellers with a continent of profound depth and achievement.
