HOLIDAYS IN GAMBIA
GAMBIA HOLIDAYS AND HOTEL INFORMATION
The Gambia is located in Western Africa; it is completely surrounded by Senegal, except for its Atlantic coastline. The country is split down the middle by the River Gambia which runs the length of the country until it passes into the Ocean. Communication is easy on holidays to the Gambia as the official language of the country is English, but there are many tribal languages spoken also. For a small country, 30 miles wide and 200 miles long, there is an incredible wealth of wildlife and natural beauty. This in combination with the unspoilt Atlantic coastline makes holidays in the Gambia a delightful experience. Gambia�s winter sun can be reached from London in less than 6 hours, and there is no time difference during winter, so no jetlag. For those who want a bit of culture on their holidays to Gambia there are many historical buildings that can be visited, including forts and trade houses from the time of slavery. Enjoy the beaches or search for wildlife in one of seven nature parks. Gambia�s bird watching is world famous, there are over 500 species to be found in this small country.
