The smallest country in continental Africa leaves a big, big impression
Although petite in size, The Gambia is a powerhouse of biodiversity. With an abundance of different ecosystems and nature reserves, you don't have to travel far to see some amazing wildlife. Although this part of West Africa is a birdwatchers' paradise with over 600 species of birds, you'll also want to be on the lookout for Nile crocodiles, hippos, spitting cobras and monkeys. Your camera is a non-negotiable for a trip to the Gambia.
