Why the hell would you want to go to the Sahara? It's one of the most desolate and boring deserts on Earth. American Southwest and Mexican deserts mog it.
These sorts of observations actually break western european brains because they are extremely provincial. Ive seen the fact that it is a 45 minute walk across central paris actually anger french people like an alzheimers paitent trying to find his childhood pet. A spanish communist in his fourties once told me algeria was 3000 miles away from europe. They deserve whats happening to them.
They made a sport out of that, anon...of course that is until they decided it should be dakar, no Paris and then there was no Dakar either and ended up in some random desert spot no one really cares about
The Budapest-Bamako rally aims to capture the spirit of Paris-Dakar and, in places, actually goes along the old Paris-Dakar piste. Like the Paris-Dakar, the exact destination has changed over time. The last three have ended in Freetown, Sierra Leone.
I did the 2024 rally earlier this year. It was the best vacation and most fun I've had in years. It was great. I'm already planning for the next one in 2026.

what the frick
you can drive from europe to the sahara in 2 days
In Morocco, it gets more "desert" as you go further south. I didn't really feel fully "Sahara desert" until about Laayoune. From Laayoune to Nouakchott felt like the most remote/desolate part of the B2B route, especially the stretch between Dakhla and Bir Gandouz.
>trying to argue Africa is a better place now than it was when it was ruled by white people just to be obstinate against "Americans" in his mind
Amazing
>Algerian Sahara
No, you can't reach that far if you go through Morocco, there are no roads that lead you there and there's a huge mine field between the two nations at the Sahara border
But you could probably drive a normal car through Morocco's side of the desert and even cross into Mauritania
I mean you could technically also cross through Libya, Morocco just seems to be the mainstream safer route, but if you want to be kidnapped for a ransom be my guest
You have to actually try hard to get kidnapped in Algeria, considering you'd forcibly be assigned a police escort or a guide if you venture anywhere south.
How high are you right now anon?
We should ask the OP if beyond Gilbittera Strait the world ends.

this is such a laughably terrible take, i can only assume you're trolling.
I'm from the California desert and I absolutely want to check this out.
No gun shop, we are sorry.
:c
Can I pay the local nomadic people some US currency to shoot their AK-47?
It’s a mutt. they never really go anywhere interesting or bother to learn about it. Lets keep it that way, I dont want them fucning up the sahara.
I thought this was a painting at first, damn now I want to visit Morocco

What the point of going into africa if you start from Clermont-Ferrand ?
Africa is already here

Fricking mad max vibes

Crazy to think how much worse things have gotten for africa since decolonization.

Lmao what a burger take.
>trying to argue Africa is a better place now than it was when it was ruled by white people just to be obstinate against "Americans" in his mind
Amazing
Burger doesn't necessarily mean "American", it's a state of mind that has long transcended borders. Literally anyone can be a burger.
It's because wasting oil and killing african children in offroad accidents isn't very trendy anymore.
That and Saudi Arabia pays so much money to host it that literally no one can outbid them.
is it reasonably easy to drive your average western european car to the Algerian Sahara?
>Algerian Sahara
No, you can't reach that far if you go through Morocco, there are no roads that lead you there and there's a huge mine field between the two nations at the Sahara border

>if you go through Morocco
literally no one asked? there are direct ferries from Europe or crossing from Tunisia
I mean you could technically also cross through Libya, Morocco just seems to be the mainstream safer route, but if you want to be kidnapped for a ransom be my guest
