Senegal Travel and Vacation – Good to know
Most travelers need a visa to enter Senegal. You can apply for it online or obtain it upon arrival at the airport, but the online application is the easiest option. Be sure to check the current requirements before your trip, as they can vary. Make sure your passport is valid for at least six months.
The best airport to fly to Senegal is the Aéroport International Blaise Diagne (DSS), which is located near Dakar. It offers numerous international connections and modern facilities. Allow enough time to take care of the entry formalities. From here, you can easily set off on your off-road adventure.
CFA Franc (XOF) is the local currency in Senegal. Credit cards are increasingly accepted, but cash is often the better choice in rural areas. Bring enough cash, especially for off-road trips. Banks and ATMs are available in larger cities, but you should always have some emergency money in cash.
Check before your trip if vaccinations against yellow fever and other diseases are recommended. A travel insurance is advisable to cover unexpected medical costs. Pay attention to the current health advisories and ensure that you receive all necessary vaccinations on time to be on the safe side.
To drive in Senegal you need a valid international driver's license. This should be presented along with your national driver's license. Inform yourself about the traffic rules beforehand, as they may differ from those in Europe. Also consider the road conditions, especially if you are traveling in busy urban traffic or in rural areas.
A simple and inexpensive means of communication is to purchase a SIM card locally. You can find these in stores of major providers like Orange or Tigo. Don’t forget to bring your passport, as it is required for the purchase. Simple prepaid plans offer you enough data for navigation and internet access during your adventure.
