We were told that the tap water in The Gambia was drinkable, but it was at best muddy coloured, so whilst we could buy bottled water, I was more than happy to use the Water-to-Go bottle when I saw how good the filtered water looked and tasted. We used the filtered water for most of our 6 week trip to Bansang, especially when we went exploring the local area on small mopeds too! I will be buying one of these as a present for my nephew for when he goes to Malaysia later this year.
