We are thrilled to confirm bird-watching excursions led by renowned wildlife presenter and photographer, Megan McCubbin, for 2025 have now been released with The Gambia Experience. Building on the resounding success of inaugural tours launched earlier this year, the tours offer unique opportunity to explore The Gambia's diverse birdlife alongside Megan and esteemed guide, Malick Suso.

Megan McCubbin's love for The Gambia stems from her early childhood visits with stepfather Chris Packham. Together with award-winning Gambian guide Malick Suso, who clinched the Wanderlust Travel Magazine World Guide Award in 2023 for Wildlife & Safari!

In this year's bird tours, 154 different species were sighted in just three days, showcasing the incredible diversity of birdlife in The Gambia. The tours can be booked as an add-on to a holiday based at the family-run Bakotu Hotel, which is a sanctuary for nature lovers and features a viewing deck within its tropical gardens.

To mark Shrove Tuesday, Serenity Holidays, home to specialist travel brands Corsican Places and Sardinian Places, took to the kitchen to battle it out to find the perfect pancake.

Three teams representing all three destinations took part in a mouth watering showdown as pancake recipes collided in a pancake making competition like never before. Together they bring the gastronomic delights of Corsica, Sardinia, and Great Britain.

Corsica is known for its Mediterranean influence, Corsican pancakes featured goats’ cheese for a savoury twist.

Sardinian pancakes showcase the island’s love for food and have a unique twist. Made with a base of potato the team added saffron, orange and limoncello and covered in sugar.

British traditional pancakes are thin and delicate, and the team drizzled a typically British gin and tonic glaze to finish off.

The competition was held at the Solent Hotel & Spa in Whiteley, close to the Serenity headquarters and the hotel also provided an expert panel of judges including their Head Chef, Jon Marsden-Jones who had the challenging task of evaluating each pancake based on taste, creativity and authenticity.

And the winners are...

After intense deliberation, the judges declared Sardinia as the ultimate pancake, with its innovative blend of flavours capturing the essence of the country’s culinary traditions. Winning with just one point above Corsica, it was awarded due to the difficulty of the batter.
