Getting TO/AROUND: Regular flights from Paris and Marseilles to Nouanchott.
If you are going to visit the Adrar region take a flight from Marseilles to Atar.
Unless you have a lot of time to spend there, to travel inland you need a car.
We travelled by rental cars with local drivers. I recommend that you do the same, for safety reasons.
We met very professional drivers; moreover they were very friendly people. During the long hours through the desert, our driver used to talk about his and our country �and joke with me since I was worried about jackals!
Our travel agent in Nouanchott was:Moustahpa ben med Mahmoud ben Kalifa.
And, if you have plenty of time, take a taxi brousse!

cachaseiro Fri Jun 27, 2008 01:16 UTC that looks very interesting and adventurous. i�d love to go there.	Tourmaline9 Thu Feb 21, 2008 02:23 UTC Thanks for the tips, I hope to make this trip happen pretty soon ! And I liked the tip about asking permission before you take a picture, aint nothing i dislike more than seeing tourist pushing their cameras in locals faces !!
SLLiew Tue Jan 9, 2007 13:21 UTC Titti, Enjoyed a wonderful virtual tour of Mauritania. Do as the Romans do - sleep in the tents! Noted that your introduction showed that you have use HTML markers - VT support only VTML and it is easy to use. Cheers, SL	Nemorino Sat Sep 9, 2006 12:34 UTC Lovely photos and insightful tips. It must be great to sleep in a tent in the desert. (Thanks for your help on the Verona Forum.)
