Gambia Luxury Safari
Five nights at Ngala Lodge and two nights in Fathala Wildlife Reserve
Enjoy the peaceful tranquillity of the idyllic beachside getaway at the Ngala Lodge, before witnessing African nature at Fathala Wildlife Reserve on this twin-centre holiday.
Begin your holiday in the Fajara coastal suburb resort of Ngala Lodge in the Bakau region of Gambia. Check-in to this relaxing hotel for a five-night stay. The hotel is set on a series of cliffs above a scenic cove overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. While staying here, explore the impressive tranquil grounds and soak up the sun, taste delicious flavours, and enjoy a perfect night’s sleep in the comfort of your spacious suite.
Next, head to Senegal for your two-night stay at Fathala Wildlife Reserve. Set within a large national reserve in the Sine Saloum South region, this resort will allow you to experience a selection of African wildlife. By day, relax by the plunge pool and lounge on the sun deck, discover a wealth of wildlife, and enjoy action-packed unique safari excursions. After dark, stay in an air-conditioned tent on a raised walkway and wake up the next morning to the peaceful hum of the African bush.

The adult-only Ngala Lodge offers two swimming pools, large gardens with sunbathing areas, restaurant, bar, drinks service on the beach, Wi-Fi access, massage service, laundry service, and a total of 24 suites.
