About operator:

I was born, and educated in Dakar. My passion for tourism is part of who I am. I offer visitors to Dakar a unique opportunity to take a journey back in time in the life of our city. But I will also provide them with a view and experience of Senegal that only Locals would know. So it is my absolute pleasure to show off these places and tell stories related to them which make History come alive.
