    I enjoyed the Bandia Reserve tour. Picked up at 7am and transferred by coach to Bandia, which took about 1 hour. It was fascinating and eye opening to see Senegalese life en route to the reserve. The reserve itself was well organised and we were transferred into dedicated safari trucks according to language. We saw giraffes, zebra, hyena, antelopes, ostrich & 2 rhinos. The coach driver got us there and back safely. Overall I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone staying at Riu Baobab.

    Thoroughly enjoyable trip. Pleasant and informative guide in transport and at venue. Whilst wildlife available to see was limited, we were able to see all interesting species

    The trip was perfect for seeing local villages as we travelled there and the reserve was superb. The animals were so close and the guide made sure there was plenty of time to take pictures. We were so lucky to see all animals there and are tempted to go again this week!

    Not a bad half day out but the organisation was a little lacking and on the game drive, we had to sit in with the driver of the lorry as there wasn't enough room in the rear of the truck for us, consequently we could not hear any of the commentary or explanation of the animals we saw!
