MOPTI – KÉ-MACINA
2 DAYS / 1 NIGHT
After an early breakfast you embark the pinasse and the next few days you can enjoy a very beautiful part of the river Niger or “le fleuve” as we call it.
A lot is happening on the water: pirogues come and go, often fully loaded with merchandise, motors etc.; fishermen are casting their nets and along the riverbanks, women are doing the dishes and the laundry, while children are splashing to their hearts content.
In the trees and the shrubs you’ll see numerous birds like king fishers, herons, weaver birds, finches etc.
We will stop regularly in
small villages like Ngomi, Dakabon, Kouakourou ,
Ouro Modi, Koa and Diafarabé; you can meet the people, who live there and get to
know about the culture. You see the mud brick houses, the beautiful little
mosques of banco.
After a short visit we will
leave towards Ke-Macina, passing villages like Komara and Touala. In the
afternoon we arrive at Ke-Macina.
The 2 nights will be spend in tents on the riverbanks and during this trip all meals are included and they will be prepared by the cook. We have picnic-luncheons and dinners on the shores by lamplight.
