Our story
During our travels around the world, our journeys met and intersected in Africa. In Senegal, on the west coast of Africa, we have independently discovered a beautiful and safe country known as the Land of Teranga. This word in the local language means hospitality, but it is not "just" hospitality. It is a way of life for local people that includes generosity, hospitality and sharing with everyone around. Teranga emphasizes the generosity of the spirit and the sharing of material things in all encounters — even with strangers. Everyone is safe and welcome, regardless of nationality, religion or language.
Acceptance from locals and new friendships first gave rise to a Facebook page for those who fell in love with Senegal or were interested in it and would like to discover it. However, since Africa is an unexplored and sometimes a bit feared exotic continent for most Europeans, we decided to help you with visiting and getting to know this country in other ways as well. Babou - a local guide who has been accompanying tourists for many years - lives and works in Senegal. He speaks several languages, so even without knowledge of foreign languages, you do not have to worry and you can entrust yourself to his care. Lucie will discuss your holiday ideas, advice, tips and recommendations with you. And in cooperation with Babou, they will also plan your vacation exactly according to your ideas. And before your dream trip takes place, you can get inspired and tune in to the Facebook pages that Blanka takes care of for you.
