Travel to Mauritania

A land of fascinating contrasts and untamed beauty, Mauritania beckons intrepid travelers to embark on an unforgettable adventure. Located in the heart of Northwest Africa, this pearl of the desert offers a unique blend of ancient traditions and spectacular landscapes that will undoubtedly leave an indelible mark on your soul.


Begin your expedition in the capital city of Nouakchott, where bustling markets and lively street life offer a glimpse into the daily rhythm of Moorish culture. As you travel deeper into the country, you'll find the legendary dunes of the Sahara Desert, like golden waves frozen in time. Travel across the sands on the back of a camel and experience the quiet majesty of this endless desert.


Discover the legendary city of Chinguetti, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a center of Islamic scholarship. Its ancient libraries house priceless manuscripts that open a window into the region's intellectual heritage. Nearby, the charming city of Wadan boasts adobe architecture that seems to have grown organically out of the desert.


For a change of scenery, head west to Nouadhibou, a coastal town where the desert meets the Atlantic Ocean. Here, beaches, fishing and water sports opportunities provide a refreshing contrast to the arid landscape.


Mauritania's nomadic culture is an integral part of its identity, and meeting Bedouin tribes during your trip will add a sense of authenticity to your experience. Interact with the locals, sample traditional dishes like couscous and lamb, and experience the warm hospitality the country is known for.


Traveling through this mysterious country, you will see masterpieces of nature - from the towering Ben Amer, the largest monolith in Africa, to the serene spectacle of the Oasis of Aleg.
