Vacation in Nouakchott

I decided to take my family for a vacation in Nouakchott last year. We packed our bags got the air ticket and passports and headed to the airport. The ticket to the destination was by and the return ticket was by. I had acquired ticket discounts for my family from a ticket coupon I got from my local store shopping. I managed to save a lot from minimizing my ticket costs, more than $200. We arrived in Nouakchott after ten hours of flying. The service in where we had acquired our ticket from was incredible. Our hotel was amazing and the stay was great. We did not manage to travel through Nouakchott a lot as we had to minimize on our budget and the ticket entry cost to most places was severely past our range. Despite all that my family was grateful for what I made them experience.

Free stay in Azalai Marhaba

I got free accommodation in Nouakchott three months ago. I could only access this by purchasing an air ticket and boarding a flight to the region. I was excited to travel to Nouakchott. Since it was not a planned trip I had to save up on my ticket costs. I booked my ticket earlier than the travel date to also get a lower ticket rate. The hotel was a great 3 star hotel, in my opinion it felt like I was staying in a five star hotel while in Agadir. I toured several places such as the national museum of Mauritania and Park Seydou. The weather was amazing when I traveled to Nouakchott.
