8 Day Tour takes you across the wild heart of Mauritania. You cross the border at Guerguerat and travel to Nouadhibou, then visit the quiet islands and birdlife of Banc d’Arguin, sleep in a simple camp at Iwik, and head deep into the Sahara. You will see wide sand dunes, the white valleys, old trading towns like Ouadane and Chinguetti, the strange round Richat “eye,” and cool oases where you can rest and drink tea.
This trip mixes nature, history, and real desert life. You stay in basic hotels and a fixed camp, eat local food, meet friendly people, and walk through markets and old streets. It is a calm, slow-paced journey made for people who like birds, wide views, quiet nights, and stories from the desert.
