Mustapha Kassama is a licensed birdwatching guide. He is very friendly and very reliable.
He learned his job from his brother who was one of the first birdwatching guides in The Gambia. Mustapha knows his birds very well and is able to tell you lots of details about every single bird. Driving around a lot he knows all the important birdwatching areas in The Gambia.
If you stick to the coastal areas there are many interesting birds you can see. But it is always worthwhile seeing some up-country sites in Basse, Georgetown or Tendaba Camp. Mustapha will help you to plan these trips.
In December 2010 we made our second trip in The Gambia. Having been guided to Tanji Nature Reserve, Pirang, Brufut Woods and Tujering by Mustapha, we found him to be very knowledgeable and keen to find different bird species for us as you can see on the site. Above all Mustapha became a good friend and we would definitely use Mustapha as a guide again.

Wij bezochten Gambia in het kader van een ‘birdwatching’ reis. We vonden er een uitstekende gids. Zijn naam is Mustapha Kassama en hij is is een gediplomeerde, professionele vogelgids.
Hij werkt met correcte tarieven (vooraf te bespreken), is heel vakbekwaam, uiterst geduldig, stipt op de afspraken en verzorgt desgewenst vervoer.
Wij hebben zijn discrete, beslist niet opdringerige omgang gewaardeerd. Van op grote afstand weet hij feilloos vogels te lokaliseren en te identificeren. Hij kan de vakantie van vogelaars doen slagen.
