Senegal is a fascinating country with a rich cultural and historical heritage. It is home to diverse languages and cultures, making it an ideal destination for travellers looking for an immersive experience. Senegal, also popularly called the country of Teranga, meaning “hospitality”, is home for people with the best hospitality you can ever think of. Senegalese will go out of their way to help you, converse with you, share their food with you and keep you safe in their shelter. Even the poorest of its people are kind enough to feed you with their last food.
Speaking of food, because Senegal is blessed with many ethnic groups, you are bound to enjoy its numerous cuisines alongside diverse culture and customs. If you are a lover of fish, you definitely need to try the Thiebou Djeun fish in Senegal. It is arguably the best fish ever! So, if you would love to have a taste of delicacies different from the regular bala bulu, Senegal has amazing foods to offer you.
If you are among the people who consider Paris, New York city, Italy & London as the fashion capitals of the world, our best bet is that you have never been to Senegal! Blessed with Africa’s most creative and artistic minds, Senegal has a lot of fashion items such as clothes, furnishings, covers, arts & crafts, jewelleries – you name it – to be shopped. Senegalese are exceptionally creative people and you see the uniqueness in all that they do from crafts, clothes, music and their dance.
The best part of having a shopping experience in Senegal is that, its currency is interestingly weaker to Naira. The currency used in Senegal is the West African CFA franc (XOF) and with only 75 Kobo which is less than a Naira, you can get 1 XOF. This ultimately means that when you travel to Senegal, you get to shop for cheaper rates than at home. For those who love to shop or the business moguls, this is an opportunity to seize when you visit this amazing country.
In addition, the country has several side attractions and fun places to visit, including the beautiful beaches of Dakar, wildlife reserves, historical monuments, the bustling markets of St. Louis, the picturesque landscapes of Casamance and much more. Located at the West Coast of Africa, below the Sahara Desert, Senegal is separated by a river called the “Senegal River”, creating a beautiful scene and atmosphere for tourists to enjoy. The Nikolo Jobs Park in Senegal is a must visit for every tourist. There you can lay eyes on the largest Lions and Hippopotamus in Africa. We personally recommend the Southern part of Senegal as a must visit to tourists as it has the most beautiful places in the country.
Senegal has a vibrant economy with plenty of opportunities for tourists to explore. From its agricultural sector to its booming tourism industry, Senegal offers something for everyone! Whether you’re looking to explore its languages and history or just have some fun in the sun, Senegal is sure to provide an unforgettable experience!
