Affectionately known as ‘The Lazy Day Cruise’
Probably the most famous day trip in The Gambia
Otherwise called the lazy day by other tour operators. Our day starts at 9:00 am from your hotel.
Approximately a 40-minute drive away is Denton Bridge, where we will join our authentic and very comfortable pirogue.
It boasts facilities such as a fully stocked kitchen, mini bar and a toilet. We will spend the day cruising along the oyster creeks of the River Gambia.
This is a day for relaxing, enjoying the company onboard and if the mood takes you, maybe some fishing too.
The chef will be delighted to cook anything you catch!
Lunch and drinks are included and will all be served on the boat.
We aim to have you back at your hotel around 5 pm.

Both were well organised, professional with knowledgable and informative guides. Would definitely recommendPosted onVerified See the whole of Gambia It was a wonderful tour extremely well organised and led by Lamin who was the perfect guide. We did so much in our 2 days and have some wonderful memories. Really enjoyed the camp we stayed in and going for a morning swim as well as the boat trip with captain hippo who made sure we saw chimpanzees, pelicans and hippos, as well as many other birds. We also really enjoyed having experts tell us about Janjanbureh history, Wassu stones and the costume museum. They made it come alive with their passion. Lamin made everything run very smoothly and made it a very comfortable and easy trip. The highlight of our trip to Gambia, thank youPosted onVerified Thanks to Bushwhacker tours Looking for tours in The Gambia, we found Bushwhacker tours and since the first contact Alieu was very friendly and professional at the same time. We booked 4 tours a couple of days before arriving and asked to him the best way for enjoying the experiences and he did the best plan for us. Thanks to Alieu we had such a marvellous time visiting the Gambia that we didn’t spend much time resting in our resort. Age also helped us with other requests as visiting a local market for buying some spices and so on. I wish we had more time for doing also the Janjanbureh tour. Next time in The Gambia! Highly recommended!Posted onVerified Bushwhacker Tours Southern Gambia Impact Adventure - a fantastic experience away from the tourist strip This trip was, without a doubt, the highlight of our week in The Gambia. We did the one day Southern Gambia Impact Adventure, giving us a totally different and unique perspective of the country and people who live there. Alieu was an absolutely brilliant guide, answering all of our many questions. He is vastly knowledgeable about the area we visited and Gambia as a whole, and nothing was too much trouble for him. The pace of the day was relaxed and all of the projects we visited were really interesting.Thank you Alieu for a fantastic day, and we would 100% recommend Bushwhacker Tours for trips in and around The Gambia.Posted onVerified 5 stars! Superb Superb trip! I just completed a two day tour of Banjul city in the Gambia. My Guide, Alieu, was one of the very best that I’ve had in this part of the world. We were in communication for a few months before my trip, and he was incredibly helpful, detailed, and responsive. He helped me with the number of changes in my itinerary and was flexible to helping me meet my needs. He is incredibly knowledgeable about his country and West Africa in general. He made my trip significantly more fulfilling because of his incredible kindness and conversation. His tours are very well priced relative to other guides I spoke with. I opted for a private one on one tour, which was superb. In addition to all the main sites in banjul, we drove to see the Kunta Kinte village and Island which was an incredibly educational experience. He even made recommendations for terrific, high-quality dining experiences in the city. All in all, could not recommend this organization and this guide More highly. Five stars across the board.Posted onVerified The Gambia is my 120th country, and Alieu is one of the tour guides I had I was looking for a two days tour to Janjanbureh, and Bushwaker Tours was on of the one tours that popped on the internet. Alieu response and flexibility brought me to him and I did not regret it.His knowledge, temperament when we encountered the many police post on the way, the fact the he is known in The Gambia makes him a great guide!!Posted onVerified Best holiday to end 2024 We did a search of local companies in Gambia who could do excursions Bushwacker Tours was the company we chose. Their prices were competitive & better than TUI prices. Our guide Alieu was knowledgeable, well informed & had a diverse of networks everywhere we went. We as a family felt very safe & was considerably taken care of by Alieu & driver Baba. Both Alieu & Baba were organised, prompt with timings & very professional in everything they did. Alieu went over and above to ensure we as a family got the best experience from our excursions. We did Banjul City Tour; Roots Tour; Fathala Wildlife Reserve incl walking with lions and we did Monkey Park where we fed the monkeys. I highly recommend Bushwacker Tours to anyone who is going to Gambia and requires a honest, safe and knowledgeable company for their excursions. Alieu made mine & my family holiday memorable with a smile & I will never forget our experiences in The Gambia.Posted onVerified A privilege to see into a different world We went on the Fathala & Roots tour with Bushwacker tours. Alieu is an excellent guide . Who is knowledgeable, an intelligent nice person. At all times we felt completely safe, whilst able to experience a bit of real Gambian life. We learnt a lot from Alieu about what life is really like for everyday Gambians. I would encourage all tourists to venture out of their hotel . The ferry trip in itself is an eye opener.
