The Gambia

One of my first proper birding hols back in February 1992. I came across my old notebook for the trip the other night and it made fabulous reading and felt like only yesterday when I went. It prompted me to search out my old guide who I met whilst I was there, Modou Barry. We corresponded after the trip regularly but then lost touch. I'm pleased to say that I tracked him down and he's still guiding. We've swapped a few e mails and I can honestly say that if you are ever planning a visit I can recommend the country wholeheartedly and even more so I can recommend Modou as a guide. A very knowledgeable bloke and a top class guide. You can check out his website here
