New direct flights to Dakar: Tui is investing in Senegal
Holidays between the Sahara, the Atlantic and tropical forests: the Tui travel group is currently investing heavily in Senegal. Thomas Ellerbeck, member of the Executive Committee, officially presented the new plans of the Tui Group at the beginning of the year as part of a delegation trip with Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier (SPD) to Senegal.
“We want to both strengthen and further develop tourism in Africa and see great potential for holidays here, especially on the west coast,” says the manager.
New Tui building on the beach in Senegal: The all-inclusive Hotel Riu Baobab with four outdoor pools and a water park is located south of Dakar.
As a first step, Tui opened the newly built five-star Hotel Riu Baobab on the beach at Pointe Sarène a few days ago. On safari tours in the Bandia nature reserve, tourists should be able to observe giraffes, antelopes, crocodiles, monkeys, rhinos and lions, for example.
Starting in the winter season, the Group will be bringing travelers from Germany to the West African country with its own airline, Tuifly. From November 3rd, two direct flights a week are to start from Düsseldorf Airport to the Senegalese capital Dakar.
