It is the Southern most edge of Gambia, bordered by the River Hallahin - and on the opposite bank lies Senegal. Kartong has a beautiful, slow, friendly and ancient way of life - and though the more prosperous citizens now have mains electricity, it's a cultural cul-de sac - and the market underneath the huge mango tree at the village's centre carries on much as it did thousands of years ago, and goats, cows and children still stroll nonchalantly across the narrow streets. There is a sacred crocodile pool in the village which is well worth a visit, as well as the cafe's, bars and restaurants. Shops provide visitors with all they could need. Not far from About Time there is the "Reptile Farm" which is a zoo of the strange local amphibians and reptiles - which all get released again after a year. A short walk along the beach or through the jungle leads to Little's Lodge lodge, which has wi-fi. The whole region is magical and steeped in mysticism - if you don't believe in Magic - well you might by the time you leave us!
