MAURITANIA

Détours Mauritanie Voyages, a pioneering Destination Management Company (DMC) based in Atar, has been shaping the story of travel in Mauritania since the 1990s. Founded by Isselmou Cherghy and Sylvain Philip—visionaries of Saharan tourism—the company offers far more than journeys: it delivers authentic, immersive experiences rooted in deep local knowledge, respect for traditions, and a passion for the desert.

Discover the soul of the Sahara Desert with Détours Mauritanie, your expert partner for tailor-made and group travel. From the cultural heritage of Chinguetti and Ouadane to the untouched landscapes of Banc d’Arguin National Park, each itinerary is crafted as a meaningful encounter with the land and its people—far beyond the beaten track.

Your journey takes center stage with Détours Mauritanie, a DMC dedicated to creating seamless, personalized experiences—from nomadic immersions and Saharan expeditions to cultural, family, and special interest travel. With expert guides, strong community ties, and a philosophy that “the desert is not visited—it is lived,” every detail is designed to offer a journey that is both enriching and unforgettable.

Let Détours Mauritanie be your trusted guide to Mauritania, where every path leads to discovery, every encounter tells a story, and every moment becomes part of a lasting memory.
