Jeep Safari Rentals These jeeps are very popular with tourists and can be found for hire outside the Senegambia strip and the other busy coastal hotel resorts. They are coloured green and usually have an open roof and they are regulated by the Gambia Tourism Authority. They are a good way to get great views of the scenery while either driving deep in the bush or down south to the secluded beaches of Kartong and Sanyang. Such jeeps come with a driver. Ferry Crossings There are 8 ferry crossing points along the Gambia River at many small terminals as well as the main one at the Banjul Ferry Terminal. The cost of crossing from Banjul to Barra is less than 10 pence.  Another alternative is to hire a boat from one of the many fishing businesses located at Denton Bridge, near Banjul, or hire an African Pirogue from any local fishermen but please bear in mind such people don't usually carry life jackets or 2 way radios on their boats. Microlight Flights A fantastic way to enjoy aerial scenery of the Gambia's creeks, mangroves and national parks. There are a few landing strips in the country so you are able to make stopovers in certain areas of tourist interest. These light aircraft flights are operated by Maddox Microlights.
