Mauritania

Sahara’s Best-Kept Secret
Mauritania is a land of dramatic dunes and ancient caravan routes, offering a prestigious escape into the Sahara’s most spectacular landscapes. Arrive via private airplane into Nouakchott before taking a charter flight to the UNESCO-listed Chinguetti, the seventh holy city of Islam. Embark on a 4x4 desert safari across the vast Adrar plateau, staying in luxury mobile camps under the stars.
Experience the Atlantic via a private coastal cruise to the Banc d'Arguin National Park, a world-class destination for bird watching and traditional Imraguen fishing culture. While the country is a desert powerhouse, its "islands" of life—the oases of the interior—offer a surreal backdrop for luxury discovery. Whether you are exploring the "Iron Ore Train" route or lounging in a boutique city hotel, Mauritania delivers an unparalleled sense of discovery.
