The Desert Train: A Journey Through The Sahara To The Atlantic Coast | TRACKS

[@13lilsykos]

I can only imagine how beautiful the stars must be when riding along at night.

[@Wutzmename]

I live in the Mojave desert. It's high desert area in California and upon moving here from the big cities I can see the Milky Way galaxy edge on. The stars between stars between stars are unbelievable to see. There's nothing like it.

[@pietrojenkins6901]

@@Wutzmename try it in eastern Africa you see a whole lot more galaxies and the night sky looks like a disco club.

[@Wutzmename]

@@pietrojenkins6901 I bet. I never understood the song Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star until I moved out to here because they sparkle like diamonds at times.

[@elmoustaphameimou2071]

yes indeed

[@13lilsykos]

I live in a tiny town (around 700) in South Carolina and I like that we don't have much light pollution and can go out at night and listen to the quiet and see the stars.

[@mentalizatelo]

This is just amazing; I love how they drink tea and it's a communion practice. No alcohol (it dehydrates you), no drugs, no smoking. Just tea and water. They seem to be very friendly and to love their land. Proud people of their land, thank you for such a nice production. It's got some very interesting comments that makes you really think.

[@mozartips]

Natural life is far better than city life. I know we need doctors, engineers and stuff but I think city life seems too robotic to me and everyone wants to take a share of what you earn so at the end you work hard for others and don't get much for yourself.

I cannot begin to tell you how much I enjoyed this video - I can't get too much of the Sahara desert and the amazing things that go on there and this is the finest film I have seen of it to date - so incredible those trains, and it was like being there, how I wish I could travel on one! I was lucky enough to spend some years in the desert in Egypt as a child in the 1950s and just loved it. It is so wonderful t be able to see so much now with this new technology. Now, in my old age, I shall watch this documentary with great joy, over and over, I know I shall - thank you, THANK YOU, you have made an old woman very happy! MORE PLEASE......!!

[@worldcitizeng6507]

Many affordable groups tours from marrakech to 2 parts of Sahara, includingvan, meals for around90 euro, spending 1 might under the stars was amazing.

Thank you for a Wonderful Journey through Mauritania. It just became one of my bucket lists before I die. I'd do it just for the colour of their Trains. Aaaarrrrrrgghh. Blessings to your Wonderful Country. 🙏

[@loullahahmedou153]

My beautiful country ❤ Guys, if you visite Mauritania, don't miss Tanouchert, Ben Amira, Richat structure and Banc d'Arguine. There is a lot of other beautiful places for sure

[@talathussain5078]

Wao I enjoyed this video very much. Mauritanians are very humble people. They seemed contented with their lives, and they were also offering namaz punctually.

[@milkyway808]

Wow!! Imagine you can see the open sky at night ⭐️ AND more I’m so jealous now.

[@abkh5780]

It was a nice engaging journey, train which seemed a moving town or I should say mobile market going through desert and small civilizations, nice and caring people, desert camping, having fresh tea prepared on the train, local people's talks and many more enjoyable things. Thanks for letting us to be part of the journey.

[@RahulRoy-h5j]

What a beauty of the desert and its nature!I have a dream to visit this desert!

[@Wutzmename]

I have to admit that my hopes weren't very high on choosing to watch this video. I've seen one about this a year ago and it was pretty good. So I'm thinking how much more can be improved and boy was I wrong!! Beautifully done with the sense of actually being there. Really enjoyed it.

[@makarandpitre6638]

Its very beautiful video. Man can adjust as per situation. Even enjoying life

[@denisehusbands5751]

In Barbados where I grew up, we brewed (poured it from cup to cup) our tea to cool it down quickly so we drink it without burning our tongue. In another documentary about the Sahara, the people said that they poured the tea and brewed it several times as a remembrance of their ancestors. In this documentary, the man said it was a welcoming ceremony.

[@GuantanamoBayBarbie2]

it was of the best sunsets I have seen ever in that train, even my profile picture is on that train 😂 I will never forget this experience ever !! TIP: if you want to try it, it's much better to be with locals because probably you will die alone, at least mauritanians gonna show you their hospitality 🙌

Amazing look a Desert Library which such Precious Scripture and Book. Better if All could be save in Microfilm or in E book. and the Original Hard copy, make a multiplied copies and spread to the whole school so the Children or student could learn their History and knowledge behind the Scripture. Rather it would be vanish when Abdullah pased away or nobody take care. The Place itself was wow. .Hard to Imagine in the desert there are Library. Thank's Track Team for sharing priceless experience from the desert...

By watching this documentary really give me tears with the only reason that why the richest countries of the world are not taking any action for development of this nation. They need huge humanitarian aids etc. The muslim countries of the world especially the Arab people must take actions to support those people. The entire world is talking about human rights, why the are blind watching this documentary. Thanks for such a documentary... appreciated..
