A trip to Senegal isn't complete without enjoying their excellent French and West African restaurants, never-ending markets and vendors, and white sand beaches. We will also visit art galleries, museums and speak with professional fine artists in their private studios. Known for its jumping nightlife, we will be making group outings to party at Dakars’ many concerts and nightclubs featuring internationally acclaimed artists and musicians. We will get a chance to interact on a personal level with people from a few of Senegals many ethnic groups including Wolof, Fulani and Serer. Participants will be able to enjoy the group tours and outings, as well as adventure out on their own to explore the city.
