Entering in Senegal coming from Mauritania
Helllo to all
Can any one inform me about the entering in Senegal coming from Mauritania?
In 2003 I have tried to enter with vehicles with more than 5 years I was completely forbidden to enter.
In 2004 I went from Portugal to Guiné Bissau with more then 5 year old vehicles but I enter in Senegal after Kayes (Tambakonda?) with no problems.
How is this situation now?
Thanks in advance
B regards from Portugal

In feb.2007 we go to Senegal from Diama: 6 cars and any of it have more that 5 years. We have 2 variants: pay official 450 Euros for all cars or pay bribe 300 euros for all cars.....

Thanks to all
If some one has more information about Mauritania borders please inform the group.
We are planning a trip to Guiné and the only way to pass is thru Mauritania...
