« Keur Diame » means house of peace in Wolof, it is located in one of Dakar’s suburbs, but near the airport. It is meant to be a place where you will be able to relax and sit back after an excursion to downtown or after coming back from the country side. The sandy beach of “Yoff Cimetière” is only a few steps away.

The 7 double rooms are equipped with the essentials such as fan and mosquito net. We have rooms with private bathroom and rooms with shared bath with hot water. Breakfast is included in the room price and if you wish to take lunch or dinner with us, we are very happy to take your order. We offer Senegalese and European food and snacks.

I have been working with the same team for several years and our aim is to provide a clean and tidy surrounding where security is a priority and the general well being of our guests an unwritten law.

I am collaborating with very responsible drivers who would enjoy showing you their country while driving in their cars. I would be happy to help you organise a trip to the many places of interest in this country like the town of St. Louis, the region of Sine-Saloum or the national park of Niokolo Koba and much more.

Downtown Dakar offers itself many places, such as the colourful markets, the narrow but very busy shopping streets, the harbour area but also the beautiful mosques, museums and the old railway station built during the colonial period, where you can appreciate the life in an African capital, with all its colours, noises, smells, laughter and its business.

The small island of Gorée offers on the other hand a quiet, rather romantic image. While walking through its narrow streets, along the old colonial style houses, you can cherish this very charming atmosphere, yet many things may remind you of its sad and difficult past, the time when the African slaves were sent off from its shores to America. Today Gorée is under the protection of the UNESCO.

Other one day trips are possible from Dakar, such as the “Lac rose” (the rose colour lake), with its salt extraction, the village of tortoises, or the park of Bandia with its animals.

If you like African dances and drum playing I can organize courses and workshops for you, either on an individual or group basis. The teachers I work with are very experienced artists eager to share their know-how with you.
