Sorry about that. I dont know why they have gone up on the price.

Try manjai lodge. Its pretty cozy and basic. I'll look around for you.

When are you needing it so i'll know the dates?

Leedah.

Thank you so much! We want to arrive Friday 12/19 and depart Friday 1/9. I'll look for Manjai lodge. I really really appreciate your help!

:thumbs: I hope that you have a wonderful time. I depart on Sunday 12/14 going to Conakry and I will be there until Thursday Jan 08, I cant wait to be with her again its been far to long and this time I will make sure that I take plenty of pictures. And I still dont have any idea of where I will be staying at her family wants me to stay with them but we will most likely rent a apartment for the month, she has a very very big family :blush:

Have a great time and a safe flight !

Thanks Omoba! I am leaving 3 weeks from tomorrow and can't wait to get out of here. I'm really crabby with our gov't now and could use a vacation. We are praying we'll be able to come home together. I can't take much more of this (and neither can my wallet).

So it turns out that a round trip ticket from Dakar to Gambia is 125,000CFA! YIKES! For two of us that's a 3rd of my budget for the trip. :angry:

Does anybody know if the road from Dakar to Banjul is in good shape, or is it a hellish treck? Help!

There was some unrest a couple months ago, try and see if you find something before you go. You may have a lot of road blocks

= money ! I know the trip from Sierra Leone to Dakar was so terrible that he will fly from now on. He was MIA on the road and almost missed his 1. interview while I went beserk.

Not sure if it is advisable to ground travel to Banjul. I would email the USC part of the Dakar embassy and inquire.

WOW! Who quoted you that price???

I go to Banjul from Dakar ALLLLLLLL the time.

I have NEVER paid that much.

You must be getting "taxi quotes".

Just get to the bust stop in the morning. It leaves at about 6-7am. (i'll get the rate in a few)

It goes all the way to banjul.

I have a Delta pass to go and as soon as I get up $406 (my ticket cost), I will be going also. If I get it before you go, I'll travel with you and show you the way. (broke from this whole immigration process & calling hubby lol).

When are you going?
