Originally Published 1 year ago — by Business Insider

Eight passengers of the Norwegian Dawn cruise ship missed the all-aboard time after a private tour in São Tomé and Príncipe, leading to a chase through Africa to rejoin the ship in Senegal, after failed attempts in Gambia. The passengers had to travel through seven countries in 48 hours to catch up with the ship, and despite considering not rejoining, they finally re-embarked in Senegal after being left behind for six days.
