Comprehensive Travel Guide to Gambia for Travelers from Qatar
Planning a trip to West Africa requires knowledge of some logistical and cultural details. This guide provides you with everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable travel experience.
Travelers from Qatar must check visa requirements before booking. Most foreigners need an entry visa which can be obtained from Gambian embassies or sometimes upon arrival for some nationalities. Ensure you carry a yellow fever vaccination certificate, as it is a mandatory requirement for entry. Compare visa and flight costs to estimate your total budget. We advise applying at least two weeks before the travel date to ensure procedures are completed. The passport must be valid for at least six months. Keep a digital copy of your documents on your phone for necessity.
Getting around in Gambia mainly depends on 'Yellow Taxis' for short distances and 'Green Taxis' dedicated to tourists. Agree on the price before riding because meters are not common. To explore the upper river, you can use river ferries that provide a unique local experience, but they can be crowded. Small buses called 'Gelli Gelli' are also available and are the cheapest but take longer. Renting a car with a driver is the most comfortable option for groups. Main roads are good, but side roads may be rough, especially in the rainy season.
Gambia is a majority Muslim country, so it is important to respect local traditions. Wear modest clothing when visiting villages or mosques. Greetings and salutations are an essential part of the culture; do not hesitate to return a greeting with a smile. When filming, always ask permission from people before taking their photos. Bargaining in markets is acceptable and even expected, but do so in good spirit. Avoid using the left hand when giving gifts or eating communal meals. The Gambian people are very hospitable, and you may be invited for tea or food, which is a great opportunity to get to know the local culture deeply.
To get off the traditional tourist path, head to the fish markets in 'Tanji' at sunset and watch the fishermen returning with their colorful boats. Instead of large resorts, try staying in eco-lodges in the quiet 'Kartong' area. Taste street food like 'Benechin' or 'Domoda' in small local restaurants (Chop shops). Participate in a bird watching tour with a local guide in less famous forests. A tip from TICKETS.QA: The best place to take amazing photos is at the 'Fajara' rocky cliffs at sunset, where red rocks meet turquoise ocean waters away from the crowds.
