Promoting Authentic Travel & Local Experiences in The Gambia

At Gambia Tourism Direct Marketing, we offer more than just travel bookings. We provide a gateway to meaningful experiences that directly support the Gambian community. Whether you are looking for a peaceful beach holiday, cultural immersion, or exciting national tours, our platform connects you with locally owned businesses. From flights and hotel stays to guided excursions and relocation support, we are here to help you explore the real Gambia in a way that benefits everyone involved.

Supporting Local Tourism and Sustainable Growth

Our mission is rooted in fairness and sustainability. Much of Gambia’s tourism is controlled by large international companies, which means most of the profits leave the country. We focus on promoting small to medium-sized businesses that would otherwise rely on passing trade. By booking through us, you help strengthen local livelihoods and ensure that your visit has a positive and lasting impact on the community.

Tailored Holidays to Match Your Travel Style

We understand that no two holidays are the same. That is why we offer flexible options to suit different interests and budgets. You can choose from quiet beachside hotels, ideal for over-sixties, or opt for livelier spots near the famous Senegambia Strip with nightlife and entertainment. We also organise tours focused on birdwatching, cultural heritage, nature reserves, and local markets. Every experience is designed to be authentic and unforgettable.

Thinking of Staying Longer? We Can Help

If you are considering settling in Gambia, we can assist with the essentials. Our recommended contacts include trusted estate agents, surveyors, customs clearing agents, car hire services for long-term stays, and local banks. We aim to make your transition smooth and informed, supported by professionals who understand both local needs and international expectations. Whether for a few months stay or a new beginning, we are here to help you realise your dreams.
