Riding the World's Longest Train Across the Sahara
This isn't just any train ride — it's a 700-kilometer journey across the Mauritanian Sahara on top of iron ore carriages, creating one of the world's most epic (and dusty) travel experiences. The train stretches up to 3 kilometers long and takes around 12-20 hours to cross the desert from the mining town of Zouérat to the port city of Nouadhibou. You'll be riding on open-top freight cars under the stars, watching endless dunes roll by while covered head-to-toe in iron ore dust.
