- Le Monument de la Renaissance Africaine - The monument, which sits atop a hill surrounded by trash heaps and unfinished homes, depicts a man, woman, and child who are ostensibly meant to be African yet look glaringly like chiseled Soviet caricatures. The statue would not be quite so alarming if it were not for its sheer size, topping out at over 160 feet of bronze nationalism or a little more than half the height of the Statue of Liberty. This makes it the tallest statue in Africa.

This renowned exploration offers you privileged understanding of Dakar city, allowing you to see all of its standout features which solidify its position amongst the most distinguished cities in West Africa. However, no trip to Dakar would be comprehensive without a visit to Goree Island, a petite island with an immensely impactful past. If you’re interested in history, Goree is your ideal destination. Slaves were forcefully brought here, subjected to atrocious living conditions and horrendous maltreatment. The island narrates the tales of countless African individuals, their existence tormented and violated, and the unspeakable horrors our ancestors endured for three hundred and fifty years. A sojourn to Goree will present you with the poignant imagery of African slaves, desperately pleading for compassion as they were herded onto ships.
