    Evelyn

    Asked on April 26th, 2024

    I have an interest to do this trip as part of some other travel in the region. I am a solo traveller but the trip information states that a minimum of 2 people is required. How do I find out which trips are running? Mauritania is a difficult place to get to so whilst I have flexibility over dates, I would not be wanting to confirm long haul flights within 30 days of departure.

    Harry

    Asked on March 29th, 2023

    Are the dates guaranteed or is it dependent on having enough people sign up? Is there a single supplement? Is the accommodation in the same hotel each evening?

    Accommodation
    Group size
    Single supplement
    • Continent ToursOperatorWritten March 2023

      The tour is a go from 2 persons and cost is based on 2 persons sharing a room. Accommodation changes according to the destinations to be visited. For example, one way drive Nouakchott - Chinguitty takes about 7 hours. So the overnight on that day would be in Chinguitty.

    • H

      Harry

      TravelerWritten March 2023

      How likely is it that a tour makes (enough people sign up)? Is the accommodation in Chinguitty at a hotel? Are ALL nights at hotels (no camping)?
