Exploring Mauritania by 4x4 in February 2025

Fangui · 2024-12-13

I’m proposing to team up for two weeks in Mauritania in February.

Round-trip flight Paris/Nouakchott with RAM is around 500 €. Departure around 28/01, return around 13/02.

On the ground, I’m organizing a grand tour of Mauritania with a guide I know who’s very reliable. We’ll be in a 4x4, alternating between bivouacs and small hostels. A really diverse itinerary. The circuit price is a maximum of 1200 €. Mauritanian visa: 55 €.

I already know Mauritania—it’s a low-tourism, safe, and friendly country. A chance to discover a real desert with real nomads! However, the ‘hotel’ services are basic! So I’m looking for adaptable travel companions, easy-going, and preferably with a good sense of humor.

I’m in the senior age range, but I’ve got nothing against younger folks 😊.

If you’d like to share this amazing adventure, get in touch with me.

Hi Fangui, Hello from the tip of the 29th. I’m not available for February, but if you’d like to keep me posted about other plans, I’d be really interested.

Hi there!

Everything’s set! We’ve got our flight tickets, and the on-the-ground tour is booked with a guide I know.

Hi, I’d love to hear about your 4x4 route in Mauritania! I’ve already walked from Chinguetti to Terjit on foot. Best regards.

No response to my request. I'm trying my luck again: I just saw your Mauritania itinerary on the agency's website, and I'm really interested. I'd like to know if there's still space available. Thanks. C. Vinat.

I sent you a private message, but no reply! Are you still interested?

Hi, I didn’t receive your message. I’m still interested in the trip. The friend I usually travel with would also be interested. Are there still two spots available?

A new message to let you know that my friend had contacted Inimitours directly to ask if there was a trip to tour Mauritania in February (in case we couldn’t go with you). I think it’s your itinerary that Inimitours sent us today. So we’re the two people who’d like to join you. Inimitours mentioned in their message, among other things: a visit to Nouakchott on the 30th and no night in the Banc d’Arguin since departure is on the 13th of February at night. See you soon for updates. I’m keeping an eye on my spam folder...

Good evening

Ahmed forwarded me the message!

We’re actually asking for a change to the itinerary to match the flight ticket. This RAM option is significantly cheaper than other airlines, and we won’t lose much. No real need to camp at Banc d’Arguin.

Nouakchott doesn’t have much to see: a huge African market that’s hard to access. The best time is at the end of the day, when the fishing boats arrive at the port—it’s really spectacular.

I think we need to decide pretty quickly.

I sent you my phone number in a PM, and I’m waiting for a call.

For two people, the tour is 300 € more expensive!

Have a great weekend

I don’t know where to find your phone number. Can you tell me more about it?

I sent it in a private message. Otherwise, I told Ahmed to pass it on to you. Have a good evening!

Hello

There seems to be an issue with your messaging because I sent you 3 private messages on the 6th, 9th, and 9th.
