The Gambia

Co-authored by regional expert Sean Connolly and Philip Briggs, the world''s foremost guidebook writer on Africa, this third edition of Bradt''s The Gambia remains the most comprehensive guide available to mainland Africa''s smallest country. This new edition integrates recent developments, from recently opened restaurants and hotels to the new roads and bridges that make circumnavigating the country easier than ever. The guide provides detailed coverage of ecolodges and camps, information on festivals, music workshops and opportunities to experience local culture, plus advice about birdwatching possibilities in a country popular with first-time birders to Africa. As well as encompassing popular coastal resorts, the guide provides information required to explore the relatively undeveloped interior and proposes excursions into neighbouring Senegal, making it ideal for visitors on organised holidays and independent travellers alike.Bradt''s The Gambia reveals all the practical informatio
