A5: Would have said a local bus (more so than metros), but no photo, so going with a taxi hired in Egypt for the day, where our driver was delighted to talk about his country (before drinking tea with friends & sleeping while waiting for our return).

#TRLT A5: you can’t beat a local bus for meeting people — unfortunately no pics of my favourite, hitching a lift on a minibus in The Gambia — it seated about 16, but carried at least 20, plus a couple of teenage lads hanging off the racks on the back 😹

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @ChristineLozada @TheTravelCamel @TravelAtWill We were told there was a better chance of seeing wildlife there (as it's smaller than Kruger and a mix of different ecosystem types). It was great! #TRLT
