  Experience the fun of chasing the sun with Serenity Holidays. Enjoy a winter sun holiday in The Gambia, an unforgettable destination on the west coast of Africa. Then, enjoy a summer holiday in the Mediterranean on the ‘Isle of Beauty’, Corsica.

Picture yourself unwinding on pristine beaches, enjoying mouthwatering cuisine, and soaking up fascinating culture…The Gambia and Corsica offer both!

WINTER IN THE GAMBIA

The Gambia is a unique destination with miles of beautiful coastline, combined with exciting excursions and friendly locals. A Gambia holiday provides unforgettable experiences and some much sought-after winter sun! With temperatures reaching the low-30s in winter months, The Gambia is the ideal destination to escape the cold and dreary winter days in the UK, with direct flights starting from October.

EXCITING EXCURSIONS

Encounter this fascinating country with local and knowledgeable guides, providing you with an authentic holiday experience.

Take up a cooking class and learn how to create a Gambian feast such as Benachin or Domoda with Ida Cham – a renowned chef and founder of Yabouy Home Cooking. Head down to the market and select your produce before going back to Ida’s home to cook up a storm! Enjoy the fruits of your labour with Ida’s family, an amazing cultural experience not to be missed.

Set sail on a lazy day cruise onboard a 60ft Gambian-style river pirogue, making your way through the oyster creeks and tributaries of the Gambia River, full of colourful birdlife including the shining-blue kingfisher to the Abyssinian roller. Lunch is served as you relax on the boat under the sun or enjoy a spot of fishing.

A safari is a fantastic option for wildlife enthusiasts. Opt for a stay in a luxury safari tent, just a short hop over the border to Senegal’s Fathala Wildlife Reserve. As you arrive you are greeted by luxury wrapped in canvas, before being whisked away in a jeep for your chance to spot some of the amazing animals in the reserve, from giraffes and rhinos to zebras and more.

BEAUTIFUL BEACHES
