A kingdom of sand and dunes that reach into the sea, uniting the liquid and mineral oceans, Mauritania is a country of vast horizons, a crossroads of different cultures and civilizations that have left their mark since the first millennium AD: it is a land of passage between Maghreb and black Africa, between the ocean and the Sahara.
On the sea shines the pearl of the Banc d’Arguin Marine Park (a UNESCO World Heritage Site); an unlikely railway in the desert makes the world’s longest train appear like a ghost, next to the granitic monoliths of Ben Amera; the oases of Ouadane and Chinguetti preserve precious libraries that are among the oldest in the world; we will enter the heart of Guelb el Richat, an authentic geological curiosity; the Adrar and Tagant cliffs, the dunes of Rachid and Maden, and the huge guelta of Matmata with rare specimens of Crocodiles, fill this authentic and classic Saharan journey with color and nature.
