Cruises in West Africa offer an experience outside the usual tourist circuits, taking you to countries rich in culture, breathtaking landscapes and millennia-old traditions. From the coasts of Senegal and Cape Verde to Ghana and Sierra Leone, each stage reveals a different face of the continent. Visit local markets, fishing villages and colonial cities such as Dakar and Banjul, and immerse yourself in the warm hospitality of the local populations.

A unique mix of landscapes and biodiversity

West Africa is a mosaic of natural environments: pristine beaches, tropical forests and savannas will accompany you throughout the journey. Excursions in natural parks, safaris or walks in coastal reserves will allow you to admire an extraordinary wildlife, including monkeys, hippos and exotic birds. All with the comfort of a cruise that takes you from one world to another.

Many itineraries depart between October and April, the best time to enjoy sunny days and clear skies.
