Tours and Holidays in Guinea
Seldom visited Guinea is a country of exuberant local traditions, stunning landscapes and varied ethnic groups, yet rarely features on itineraries of West Africa. Our group tours and tailor made holidays to Guinea show curious travellers a land where you can still get the sense of exploration that has long disappeared in other parts of the continent, where you don’t feel that you’re the hundredth westerner to come through a particular village, and where the welcome from remote communities is still very genuine. Explore the landscapes of the impressive Fouta Djalon, and meet traditional Beddick and Bassari tribes following age old traditions. Discover the enigmatic ‘living bridges’ of the forest, supposedly made by spirits, and be welcomed by local chiefs into isolated communities to learn about their lifestyles. Guinea doesn’t have the iconic sights of somewhere like Mali, but what it lacks in traditional tourist attractions it more than compensates for in real adventure.
