Niger River Voyage

A traditional woven canopy shades the front of a weathered wooden boat as it navigates calm waters of the Niger River.

Hippos are partially submerged in the water as they cruise down the Niger River.

A lush green riverbank with vegetation and a wide expanse of water under a pale sky.

People are washing clothes and children are playing in the water by the river.

A wide, calm river reflects the sky and the dusty buildings of a riverside settlement, with trees and communication towers dotting the landscape.

A wide, calm river stretches towards a hazy horizon with a small boat on the left and a tree-lined bank on the right under a pale sky.
