Rules in force · 10Nine African countries on this site have no trip line bec…Sand on the pavements and no lifts in most shops
- Africa ↗When a route touches a yellow-fever country — even a transit of 12 hours or more — keep the original yellow card (ICVP) in your hand luggage; health desks and airlines can refuse boarding or entry without it.
- Africa ↗Nine African countries on this site have no trip line because governments advise against travel; several others have no-go regions. Read your government's advice for every country on the route before paying deposits.
- North Africa ↗Plan links between North African countries by air or by ferry via Europe; the only regularly usable land borders for visitors are Tunisia–Algeria and Morocco–Mauritania via Western Sahara.
- North Africa ↗Book Saharan nights (dunes, desert camps, oasis tours) between October and April; from May to September desert day temperatures regularly exceed 40 °C and many tours stop.
- Western Sahara ↗In practice, entry is through Morocco and Moroccan entry rules apply; check them for your passport before booking.
- Western Sahara ↗Stay on main roads west of the berm; the area around and east of it contains landmines and unexploded ordnance.
- Western Sahara ↗Expect frequent police checkpoints on the coastal road; carry your passport and copies.
- Dakhla peninsula ↗Book every transfer in advance: taxis to the camps are few and priced by distance.
- Dakhla ↗Sand on the pavements and no lifts in most shops: large bags go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
- Dakhla ↗Stay on paved roads and marked tracks: the interior and the area near the berm contain landmines and unexploded ordnance.
