10 days Senegal Jazz Festival Tour

Senegal is a country where rhythm shapes daily life. From the beating of sabar drums in Dakar’s markets to the haunting notes of jazz filling the streets of Saint Louis, every corner tells a story through sound, colour, and culture. In June 2026, Landtours Ghana invites you on a 10-day journey into the heart of Senegal, designed to immerse you in its history, traditions, natural wonders, and world-class music scene. The highlight: the Saint Louis Jazz Festival, one of Africa’s most celebrated cultural gatherings, where artists from across the globe unite in a spectacular display of sound and soul.

This tour is more than just music; it’s an odyssey through Senegal’s past and present, from the poignant walls of Gorée Island’s Slave House to the pink waters of Lake Retba and the golden sands of the Lompoul Desert. Touch down in vibrant Dakar, where Africa’s modern pulse meets centuries of history. A warm welcome and seamless transfer take you to your hotel; either the elegant Terrou Bi Hotel or the stylish Noom Hotel Dakar.

After a reflective morning, explore the island’s colourful alleys and visit the Women’s Museum, before returning to Dakar for a guided city tour: The Presidential Palace, a symbol of power; The African Renaissance Monument, towering proudly over the Atlantic; The bustling SANDAG Market, where fabrics, spices, and voices swirl in a kaleidoscope of energy. Arrive at Lac de Guiers, a vast freshwater lake, where you’ll share a picnic lunch by the water’s edge. Later, step into a Fulani village, where pastoral traditions meet modern resilience. Arrive in Saint Louis, Senegal’s former colonial capital. The town’s pastel buildings, arched balconies, and narrow streets create the perfect stage for the Saint Louis Jazz Festival.

Venture into the countryside to Rao, passing majestic red dunes and remote villages.Few places in the world are as surreal as Lake Retba (Lac Rose). Famous for its striking pink waters, the lake is a photographer’s dream. Here, you’ll meet salt miners who work knee-deep in shimmering water and ride along the Paris-Dakar Rally route by 4×4, before returning to Dakar.

Trade the city for the sweeping sands of the Lompoul Desert, where camels cross golden dunes and the horizon feels endless. After trekking through the desert, head south to the beach town of Saly. Discover Senegal’s wild side at Bandia Nature Reserve. Spot rhinos, antelopes, buffalo, and mischievous monkeys in their natural habitat on an unforgettable safari. Journey to the unique Fadiouth Island, built entirely on seashells. Here, Muslims and Christians live side by side in harmony, offering a rare glimpse of Senegal’s spiritual diversity. Enjoy your final morning in Dakar before transferring to the airport.
