The Gambia has been steadily growing in popularity for families. The more independent and adventurous children will find a holiday in The Gambia enjoyable and culturally stimulating - seeing a monkey or baboon in their natural habitat is a memorable experience at any age. Visiting a school and meeting Gambian children is very educational and gives the opportunity to become pen pals with children from a completely different way of life. Younger children are always happy on a beach with a bucket and spade and The Gambia has beautiful, vast, sandy beaches.
Malaria is a very real risk but it is an avoidable illness and antimalarial tablets especially for children are now available. We strongly recommend that you consult your GP before booking.
