Numerous UNESCO World Heritage-listed parks and animal reserves, representative of African wildlife, delight wildlife enthusiasts in Sine Saloum and Eastern Senegal.

The “Land of Teranga”: this is the nickname given to Senegal, a land of hospitality, sharing and wealth. And it's not untrue, for this is a country to be visited with the heart, and hospitality is deeply rooted here! Beyond its luxuriant and generous nature, Senegal boasts not only an incomparable culture, but also a beautiful heritage. Of course, you'll spend time on the fine sandy beaches, but you'll also love getting lost in the hustle and bustle of its noisy, friendly streets.

The Senegalese capital first captivates with its architectural heritage, remnants of French colonization. Dakar is a cosmopolitan city with many treasures.
