Chad is not just a destination for desert lovers. It is an adventure and a discovery that enchants everyone because of the incredible natural miracle that manifests itself here in all its essence. Indeed, who could ever imagine that the heart of the Sahara hides a veritable ‘Eden’?
In Chad, in the north-eastern part of the desert, stands one of the most morphologically astonishing and spectacular massifs in the world. A sandstone fortress in which, amid cliffs, gorges, high peaks and surreal rock formations stratified and eroded by time, true earthly paradises are concealed. Breathtaking natural explosions: lakes set between rock walls and walls of golden dunes, lush palm groves and secret springs where the last crocodiles of the desert live. All around, the Sahara, whose advance has failed to erase the miracles that nature has been able to create. Arriving at the Guelta of Archei and the lake of Ounianga Kebir, one realises that paradise on earth exists… and it is in Chad!
