Dakar Attractions: Honest Reviews & Tips! 🇸🇳

✅ MUST-GO: Gorée Island (Slave Island) Ferry ticket: ~5,200-6,000 XOF (round trip, hourly departures). Don’t miss: The slave trade museum (1,500 XOF)—haunting history + super photogenic. 📸 ❌ SKIP: Pink Lake (Lac Rose) Far & not-so-pink (unless sunset magic hits). Pro tip: Use the free restroom at the lakeside restaurant (owner’s lovely!). Avoid buying water here—tourist price scam! 💸 ⚖️ Tie: African Renaissance Monument vs. Museum of Black Civilizations Monument: 6,500 XOF (foreigner price) for guided tours + city views. Free to admire externally! Museum: 3,000 XOF—modern exhibits near the train station (but no photos of people!). ❌ Meh: Mosque of Divinity View from afar suffices—no interior access anyway. 🛍️ Shopping Rule Haggle HARD! Start at 50% off quoted prices. #Dakar #SenegalTravel #NoRegrets 🌍✨
