The small West African nation of Senegal is a popular birding holiday destination, for many reasons. One of these is the ability to escape the cold Northern winters to a summer wonderland only a few hour’s flight away, though add in easily accessible, and superb West African birding habitats and many sought after birds and it’s easy to understand why so many birders flock to this nation on an annual basis.

Tour pace is moderate with several long travel days. Not suitable for anyone with mobility or health challenges. Our Mega tours are very fast-paced birding adventures designed for the dedicated lister and serious birder. The focus of the tour is to see as many of the endemics and area specials as possible in our given time. In order to cover the necessary route to maximise the species list we tend to spend a single night at most sites and travel large distances. There is very little down time aside from that spent driving from one site to the next. These tours are not suitable for dedicated or avid photographers; inexperienced or new birders; as well as anyone with serious mobility or health challenges.
Simple & comfortable on some nights, otherwise good. All en suite.
Several difficult target species, some species are low density/or difficult.
Scissor-tailed Kite colony, Djoudj National Bird Sanctuary, an internationally important wetland
Worthwhile to good. No dedicated hides. Limited forest.
