Marrakech, the red city, the “pearl of the South”, for centuries has been considered “the end of the world”, the last outpost before the scorching sands of the Sahara, the exclusive domain of nomadic tribes and ancient routes caravan. But where for many the journey ends, the adventure begins for us!

An expedition from Morocco to Mauritania along the Western Sahara route, a fascinating region historically subject to territorial contention, suspended between the ocean and the desert. A journey that has the flavor of exploration in the lands of the Berbers, the Tuaregs and finally the Mauri, through rocky slopes, caravan cities, desolate stony grounds, soft orange dunes, beautiful lagoons, forgotten colonial outposts, and wild beaches dotted with rocky arches and old wrecks. The point of arrival is Mauritania, a land steeped in charm and history, among ancient caravan cities, green oases, solitary mosques and ancient libraries surrounded by sands.
