Set in the rural village of Gunjur, just 40 minutes south of the main resort areas, the Gunjur Project is a charming, family-run lodge with peaceful surroundings and a unique ethos. A stay at the Lodge provides a great opportunity to acquire knowledge and an understanding of The Gambia, its people, culture and traditions. Run by the welcoming British owners, in conjunction with the local community, they have an ethical approach to tourism, ensuring that all who visit the project leave making a positive impact on the surrounding villages. From supporting local schools, assisting with community ventures to donating medical supplies, a stay here will be a memorable and meaningful experience.
