Stay : Timbuktu the mythical

Just as inescapable as the Dogon Country, the city of the 333 saints is a landlocked city, difficult to access and strongly advised against by the authorities. The best way to get there is therefore to take domestic flights, or to rent a 4x4 from Mopti. This tour is based on a basic duration, that is to say, without the incidents likely to occur in this type of course
