Gambia Travel and Vacation – Good to know
Travelers need a visa to enter Gambia. It can be applied for online or obtained upon arrival for 30 days. For extended stays, a visa must be applied for in advance. Check the current regulations of the Gambian consulate to ensure that all information is correct and to not miss any possible changes.
The Banjul International Airport (BJL) is the main airport of Gambia. It offers numerous international flights and is easily accessible from many European cities. Be sure to book flights in advance to secure the best prices. The airport also provides transportation options to the capital, Banjul, and other nearby towns.
