camel trekking in Atar, Mauretania
 

Do you know something about the possibility to organise a camel trekking in Atar?? I found www.chez.com/mauretanie. They say it costs about 500 Euro per person. Its very expensive for me. Maybe somebody took part in a trekking there.. Is there any hotel or agency where I could arrange a 3 - 4 day camel trip and how much is it?? Thanks for any tips! bye

The prices you quote sound reasonable from an agency perspective. If you go to Atar and negotiate with the owners direct you'll perhaps be able to acheive a smaller price. However you will have to find the camel owner, a willing guide and camel handler, equipment and avoids the agency touts to do so.

Hello,
as a single(?) person booking in Atar you should not pay more than about 70€/day for a camel trekking based on my Algerian experience; probably less, about 50€ in low season - you will need to negiciate.
