“Senegal & The Gambia was my third Jelani Travel experience, and it did not disappoint. The entire trip was a cultural immersion, and fulfilled my greatest desires on every level. From the pre-trip welcome packages we received to our arrival into the country being coordinated with pickups and transportation to every excursion on the itinerary, every detail was well planned out and led to an amazing time. The trip was a great time, the women I met on the trip were dope, and overall the vibe was restorative, enriching and fulfilling. ”
