Accompanying guides: All our drivers, as well as our guide, speak Spanish perfectly. The people who will always be accompanying the group are people with a special gift to be able to face the different situations that may arise during the route.

Health: It is convenient to visit a tropical medicine center to inform us about the relevant vaccines. It is also important to consider the proximity and quality of international health centers during the trip. On the other hand, we will be careful with water and drinks, taking only bottled products that we will find without difficulty. If a specific treatment is to be followed, the medicines must be brought from Spain since in Senegal they may not be available in local pharmacies. Although if they wish, it doesn’t hurt to bring antihistamines, anti-inflammatories and anti-diarrheals and anything specific they may need for their children.
