SIXT Services in the Gambia

If you need a car rental in the Gambia, let us help you customize it to meet your needs. If you plan to stay in Banjul or Serekunda, rent one of our sedans to better fit the urban setting. If your trip includes a visit to another part of the country to see some of its diverse wildlife, an SUV might be a more comfortable option. Then add extra protection or child seats to your rental. We also offer the option of a driver service add-on, available during limited hours and days. Whether you need a one day rental, weekly rental or a long term rental for 28 days or more, SIXT gives you maximum flexibility.

Best Places to Visit in the Gambia

  • Banjul: The capital city sits on an island at the meeting point of the Gambia River and the Atlantic Ocean. Visit Albert Market for a taste of the country or Arch 22, marking the government coup in 1994. 
  • Serekunda: What was once a collection of villages is now a major urban area. Visit the beaches in Bakau, Abuko Nature Reserve to see monkeys and crocodiles, or the craft market where locals sell their wares. 
  • Kunta Kinteh Island: This small island in the Gambia River is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It has a historical significance in trading, both of goods and slaves. You can also see the remains of a fort and other buildings. 

Tips for the Gambia in Winter

Visitors in winter will find daytime temperatures in the mid-80s, making the Gambia a great beach destination. Some beach options are Cape Point, Bakau, Kololi and Kotu Beach. If you are looking for wildlife, head to the Kachikally Crocodile Pool or Kiang West National Park. Because there is almost no rain in the winter, take a boat cruise on the Gambia River if you want to relax. Just be sure to bring a jacket with you in winter, as it can get cool at night.
