We were on a cruise so we had time constraints. They picked us up at the cruise port and stayed within our time constraints. It was a very authentic experience. Our guide Lamin Ceesay was excellent. He was knowledgeable, polite, and made sure we saw everything. The driver and canoe drivers were also very helpful and polite. I would recommend this as a private cruise excursion.
