My excursions are departing from Denton Bridge in Banjul and ending in Lamin Lodge. Minimum of 4 persons.

Independent travellers might prefer to take Lamin Lodge as both their point of departure and of arrival. Alternatively they may decide to join one of the scheduled trips leaving from Denton Bridge.

Birds and breakfast excursion

One of my most popular trips is the Birds and Breakfast excursion, which is scheduled on any day. After a quick coffee in Lamin Lodge, you will enter a dugout canoe who will take you through the vast labyrinth of creeks that surround the village of Lamin, where more then 70 different species of water birds have been recorded. Two hours later you will return to Lamin Lodge where you can enjoy a breakfast buffet. After breakfast you will continue your search for morning birds in the gardens of the neighbouring village of Abuko.

Sunset cruise

Another favourite is the Sunset Cruise, leaving from Ala heights river in kartoung, pick up time at 4.30 p.m at your hotel lobby. After a welcome drink on board you will cruise for 1. hours through the mangroves of the River Gambia. A small band playing traditional kora music makes the magic of an African sunset complete. Upon arrival both African and European specialities in the restaurant. We have dinner at 7pm.
