Djoudj national park Travel Guide

This spectacular park outside of Saint Louis Senegal allows you to travel through flocks of exotic birds, among other animals.  It is worth a trip, but don't try it on your own.  The ride from Saint Louis is off-road at times, and you'll need a pirogue tour once you get to the park.  Your best bet would be to hire a complete tour from Saint Louis, which you can do at the visitor bureau.  The best time to visit is Oct-April, when all of the migratory birds are there.
