Guided kayaktrips

We only offer kayaktrips including a guide because of safety reasons. We don’t want you to get lost or something else to happen. Our guides know these creeks and rivers and they know the best spots to take you to. You want something to drink and eat? No problem we will arrange it all for you.

The best kayakguides in the Gambia

We are very proud that we can say we have the best kayak-guides in the Gambia. We can hear you thinking.. why is that? That is because one of our guides managed to drive river Gambia by kayak with some friends. From the border near Fatoto to the ocean they made an incredible journey. If you want more information about that, just take a look at: expeditiongambia.com. Watch the trailer here:

This amazingly fast kayak (Gatz Mohawk 470) is now for rent including our guide who can tell you all the stories about the amazing Gambia Expedition in 2012. Kayaking in the Gambia, and especially in the mangroves around our lodge is a life changing experience. Enjoy Gambia in the purest way!
