Rules in force · 5Uneven pavements, crowds and touts
- The Gambia ↗Check visa and entry rules for your passport on official Gambian government sources before booking.
- The Gambia ↗Dress modestly away from the beach: shoulders and knees covered in towns and villages.
- Atlantic Coast ↗Taxis are yellow and unmetered: agree the fare and the return before you get in.
- Banjul ↗Uneven pavements, crowds and touts: bags go from the car to the hotel door, never on a walk.
- Banjul ↗Unofficial guides (bumsters) approach visitors: a polite firm no is enough; agree any price first.
