Mauritania

Mauritania is located in West Africa, bordering to the northwest in Algeria, to the northwest in the Western Sahara, to the east and south in Mali, on the southwest in Senegal and on the west by the Atlantic Ocean.

During West Africa tours, one can enjoy the thriving culture of music in Mauritania. Traditional musical instruments include the hourglass shaped tidinit, a four-stringed instrument.

Although there are a number of restaurants across Mauritania, home cooked meals are quite popular with tourists. Tasty preparations of meat include Mechoui, a preparation from the roast of an entire lamb. The special foods of Mauritania are typically consumed in celebration of festivals, wedding parties and birthdays.

French, Chinese, Moroccan and Lebanese dishes are available in restaurants across Mauritania. For the travelers interested in immersing in the cultural life on West Africa tours, dancing in the desert with villagers can be a memorable experience.
