Introduction: This trip showcases the music, the people and the cultural diversity that makes West Africa so special. Hang out with the sacred monkeys at Baobeng Fiema Monkey Sanctuary, and walk with the elephants in Mole National Park. Explore on foot the unique culture and villages of the Dogon People. Mali moves to its own unique beat and to this amazing sound track we will witness life on the Niger River as well as exploring the ancient trading towns of Timbuktu and Djenné. The tour ends in Bamako, straddling the banks of the Niger River. It is from here that African Music first leapt from the bars and clubs of the bustling Malian capital to the stages of Paris and the world as a whole.
