EXCELLENT Based on 48 reviews Posted on Tripadvisor Sandra MVerified Excelente Muito bom🥰experiência muito seguraPosted on Tripadvisor Natália SantosVerified Viagem ao Senegal Fizemos duas excursões com o Babacar no Senegal e a experiência foi excelente do início ao fim. Visitámos a Reserva de Bandia e o Rancho dos Leões, e noutra excursão conhecemos um mercado tradicional, uma aldeia típica e o Delta do Saloum. O Babacar é muito profissional, simpático, pontual e conhece muito bem o país. Explicou-nos a cultura, os costumes e a história de cada local, tornando todas as visitas muito mais interessantes. Nunca sentimos pressa e esteve sempre disponível para responder às nossas perguntas e adaptar o ritmo da excursão ao grupo. A organização foi impecável, o transporte confortável e sentimo-nos sempre seguros. Foi uma excelente forma de conhecer o verdadeiro Senegal, para além dos locais mais turísticos. Recomendamos o Babacar sem qualquer hesitação a quem visite o Senegal. Graças a ele, tivemos uma experiência autêntica e inesquecível.Posted on Tripadvisor Alice CVerified Le Vrai Sénégal Une merveilleuse expérience dans la culture sénégalaise.

Un seul mot d’ordre pour les prochain : Faites confiances à Babacar car il en est digne laissez le vous faire découvrir le vrai Sénégal et enjoy the moment !Posted on Tripadvisor Yoann LVerified Une rencontre exceptionnelle avec Babacar **Une rencontre exceptionnelle avec Babacar – le meilleur guide pour découvrir le Sénégal !** Lors de notre séjour au Sénégal, nous avons eu la chance de rencontrer Babacar au petit marché situé à proximité de l'hôtel( sur la gauche de la plage en sortant de l'hotel par la mer). Ce marché mérite d'ailleurs le détour : authentique, chaleureux et surtout très important pour l'économie locale puisqu'il permet aux habitants du village de vivre de leur artisanat. Nous avons choisi de faire plusieurs excursions avec Babacar ( voici son numéro whatsapp +221 78 468 20 31 ou visiter son site babacartriptravel.com n'hésiter pas à le contacter) et ce fut sans aucun doute l'un des points forts de nos vacances. Accompagnés d'un chauffeur privé, nous avons découvert des paysages magnifiques, des lieux authentiques et la richesse de la culture sénégalaise. Babacar est un jeune guide passionné, professionnel et extrêmement sympathique. Il connaît parfaitement son pays, son histoire, ses traditions et partage ses connaissances avec enthousiasme et bienveillance. Grâce à lui, nous avons découvert un Sénégal authentique, loin des circuits touristiques classiques. Toujours ponctuel, à l'écoute et soucieux du bien-être de ses clients, il a su adapter les excursions à nos envies tout en nous faisant vivre des moments inoubliables. Son sourire, sa gentillesse et son amour pour son pays rendent chaque visite unique. Si vous séjournez dans la région, n'hésitez surtout pas à faire appel à Babacar. Vous passerez des moments extraordinaires tout en soutenant un jeune professionnel méritant qui travaille avec passion et sérieux. Merci encore, Babacar, pour ces magnifiques souvenirs. Nous repartons avec des étoiles plein les yeux et l'envie de revenir découvrir encore davantage ton magnifique pays ! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – Une expérience que nous recommandons à 100 % !Posted on Tripadvisor Cosmopolitan728029Verified Ideal stay in a great hotel Stayed at RIU Baobab from April 20th to 27th. Hotel is in great condition and kept clean at all times. Room was spacious and with a sea view. Room was kept cleaned and anything that needed changing was. Fresh water in bottles provided every day and if I wanted more it was provided. All staff I encountered were professional and friendly, always happy to help. Must mention Adriano in Safari bar and Helena in the main restaurant. Both very helpful and always with a smile and some humour. Didn’t really use the pool areas but used the beach most days. Always plenty of sun loungers and a choice of fixed umbrellas. They have beach cleaners picking up rubbish washed onshore from the sea, and they do a great job. Unfortunately many people just discard their cigarette butts on the sand and there is evidence of this. Food wise only used the main buffet restaurant and not the 3 separate ones. The food offered was ideal for me and I felt there was plenty of choice. Only complaint I would have is people wearing vests whilst dining in the buffet area, not particularly hygienic having hairy armpits hovering over food! We did 3 excursions which we booked using independent guides - safari park and lions, sea fishing trip through Max with Pape as our guide ( he was a fantastic guide and his English was perfect) definitely recommend these guys +221 77 702 16 61. We did a 3rd excursion booked through Dou Dou which was a 25k bike ride through the Popenguine Reserve and Somone Lagoon. Great experience but sadly on our way back to the hotel we were left in the car for 30 mins in the middle of a town with no explanation. Unfortunately this spoilt the experience for us.Posted on Tripadvisor HunteraVerified everything is ok, we will give our opinion, especially my husband because he knows english, they were great, it was a pi Cudowne wycieczki piękny Senegal pokazany nam od kuchni z waszymi wycieczka mi super chłopaki odpowiadające na temat ludzi życia cudownego Senegalu polecam warto spierać takich ludzi z taka potecja 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
