    Transportation from our hotel was right on time. Our guide ML was professional, knowledgeable, personable and spoke English very clearly. The trip went quite smoothly, the transport was comfortable, the driver was considerate and skilled, which for Barra and Banjul is remarkable!

  • Best way by far to do the Roots River cruise.

    Our guide ML was superb. He was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and very familiar with the stopping points on the tour. What wa really wonderful and one of the reasons we choose Viator over tours organized by the cruise ship: thanks to ML's planning we were able to avoid the deluge of cruise ship tourists and could enjoy the locations almost completely on our own.

    This was an amazing experience and I highly recommend it. Modou (ML) was the perfect guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and very resourceful. I would go on just about any tour with him. The sites we visited were meaningful and memorable. We learned a lot about both the history of the region and the people today.

  • Arch Tours Made Our Kunta Kinteh Experience Perfect

    From the moment Modolamine of Arch Tours picked us up at our hotel, the Kunta Kinteh Island tour was seamless and unforgettable. The tour included a visit to the museum, food, and drinks—although we had eaten breakfast at the hotel and weren’t hungry, Modolamine kindly refunded the lunch portion, which was very thoughtful. The guides were knowledgeable, respectful, and brought the island’s history during the transatlantic slave trade to life. Walking the island, taking in the river views, and reflecting on the stories was deeply moving. This tour is educational, emotional, and perfectly organized. Highly recommended if you visit The Gambia.

    This tour was well worth the money. It’s a must do if you’re in The Gambia. Our guide was friendly and very knowledgeable. We learned a great deal about Juffureh Village and Albreda. The icing on the cake was getting to visit Kunta Kinte island. After the tour we wanted to stop at the market and our guide was most gracious and patient in helping us find the items that we wanted. Thank you for making it one of our favorite days in your country. I’d recommend this tour to everyone.

  • A learning trip to Kunta Kinteh Island

    As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Kunta Kinteh Island and its related places carry exceptional universal value as witnesses to the African-European encounter and the history of the slave trade - lest we forget. Protection, learning and remembrance must guide all development in this area - for local people as well as foreign visitors. Some work around conservation-compliant visitor facilities, safe and regulated docks at embarkation points and on the island, training of local guides and operators, and clear safety standards for boat services can strengthen stewardship while encouraging responsible tourism. Efforts towards conservation and immediate improved management will both safeguard the site and sustain community livelihoods for generations to come. Visitors - local or foreign - are encouraged to engage respectfully with the site, support local communities and contribute to preserving this shared heritage for future generations. We thank our guide, Mo Lamin (or ML as he preferred to be called) and others who facilitated our visit.

    Highly recommend this tour which exceeded my expectations. I joined another solo traveller we both had a very positive experience. Our guide and his team were extremely accomodating and attentive to our needs. We got indepth historical and cultural insights, gained a wealth of information and perspectives. The guide was ponctual and highly organised which made for a smooth and pleasant experience. Thank you!

  • Passionately Told, A Good Education!

    Emmel was our Guide today - he's excellent. Very passionate, articulate and knowledgeable, he welcomed our questions with open arms and fielded every single one of them with care and confidence. Plus he created an atmosphere of both curiosity and fun which had us strangers getting along well and chatting too! Kunta Kinteh Island is heavy with history. You can't help feeling it when you're among the rubble of what used to house slave trade administration, and human suffering on an unimaginable scale. We've just had a year or two where Bigotry & Cruelty seem to be making fresh advances at almost every turn, and everywhere around the globe, so this was a not only a good education, but a timely reminder. As the words under the statue read: 'Never Again!' Thank you to all the organisers, Drivers & Guides at Arch Tours. A most excellent experience.

  • Really good guide

    Really great experience. ML was great, explained things very well and made sure we were safe throughout the trip. I travelled solo and there were 2 others on the tour with me. It was nice. He allowed us time to look around the site, take photos and then we all had lunch together. The Slave museum was sad also but very informative Bring a cardigan for the ferry as it gets a bit chilly! I’d recommend the fish option for lunch too.
