Picture yourself on a life changing, rites of passage trip to Gambia & Senegal, West Africa. Reconnect with the spirits of your ancestors during this 12 day journey through historic sites including Goree Island and James Island - two ports notorious for transporting Africans as cargo. For those who are looking to repatriate and buy land - this is a great opportunity to inquire and learn more about the process.



Get a glimpse of what Africa is really like with your own eyes and witness the beauty of the land including:

The people: Visit the market and support the craftmanship of some of Gambia's finest artists and makers. Visit the home of Kunta Kinte and meet the actual descendants that are still alive to this day.

The land: Enjoy the plants & animals like Monkeys, Lions, Crocodiles, Baboons and more.

This is just a glimpse of what this ancestral tour has to offer
