Dunes are calling...Kit Constable Maxwell and Raymond Bird will leave for Algeria at the end of October.
Our destination this time is the Hoggar Mountains, in the far south of Algeria near the Niger border. They will be travelling in Kit's trusty Land Rover.
We shall visit old forts and battle sites to review the history of this strange and compelling land. We shall meet Touareg tribesmen, the masters of the desert, and travel with them to visit unexplored corners of this uninhabited terrain.
