where to go in West Africa for 5 weeks
Hi,
I'm planning a 5 week West Africa trip in December starting from Geneva. The plan is to dash straight down to Guerguerat and start the real trip from there.
I'm torn between visiting Mauritania or Senegal or Mali. I've already visited Morocco and Western Sahara a few times with a motorcycle and 4x4. I want to see and absorb as much as possible in terms of landscape, wildlife, people and culture.
My initial thoughts were to explore Mauritania (Choum-Nouadhibou, Terjit, Chinguetti, Ouadane, coastline) and Senegal (not sure where yet) or Mauritania and Mali (Timbuktu).
I'm looking for recommendations from experienced travelers on which countries they would visit? Maybe there's somewhere else I can go for 5 weeks?
Thanks
