The tour begins in the late afternoon at the famous Place de l’Indépendance, the heart of the city centre. Here, your guide will introduce you to the history of Dakar and the evolution of its culinary culture.

Finally, the experience concludes in style with an authentic street food dinner in a lively, local setting, just like the people of Dakar do.
