An exciting expedition to a country that never ceases to surprise. Not only boundless and impenetrable desert, volcanic craters, peaks, jagged spiers, sandstone towers, spectacular canyons and prodigious oases, but also wild nature, unique ecosystems in the world and close encounters with the legendaries “big five”.
A discovery itinerary that combines one of the legendary spots of the Saharan expeditions, Tibesti, a geological prodigy as old as the world, with the amazing Zakuma Natural Park, where you can spot elephants, lions, giraffes, buffaloes, rhinos, hippos, crocodiles and many other species of mammals and birds. From surreal landscapes of rugged reliefs, peaks, spires, cliffs where ancient richly decorated shelters are hidden, volcanic craters and unexpected oases where nature is expressed in its maximum power, to a biosphere reserve that over time has kept its Sahelo-Sudanese ecosystem intact, preserving a rich endemic fauna, which lives undisturbed in a wild and uncontaminated savannah.
