From Local Roots to Global Perspectives

Babacar was born and raised in Senegal, where storytelling is as much a tradition as dancing and sharing food. He grew up with a

curiosity for languages, cultures, and the natural beauty of his homeland — and a desire to share it with the world.

Today, he’s one of the very few officially certified tour guides in the country, and proudly leads travelers from all over the world through cities, deserts, villages, and coastal gems.

Certified, Experienced, and 100% Human

He adapts to your vibe, speaks your language (literally — he’s multilingual), and makes you feel safe, seen, and welcomed.

It’s About People, Not Just Places

What makes Babacar truly unique?He sees every tour not as a product, but as a connection. Whether it’s organizing a surprise birthday picnic in the desert or translating for a curious traveler in a local market — he goes the extra mile, always.

And let’s be honest: his laugh is kind of legendary.
