Despite its very high temperatures 6 months a year, scarce rainfall, and semi-desert arid zones, the Republic of Djibouti is endowed with a rich land and sea fauna.
Winner 2018 of the prize awarded by the international organization "World Peace Without Borders", distinguished as "World Capital of Tourism and Culture of the Year 2018" by the European Council on Tourism and Trade (ECTT), awarded by the international tourist guide Lonely Planet which ranks it as the 4th destination to visit in 2018, the Republic of Djibouti is a country recognized by international bodies of peace and tourism.
More simply, the wonder, authenticity and adventure that you will find there, especially in its typical accommodations that are the campsites, make Djibouti a unique destination, to be lived once in a lifetime, in the footsteps of Arthur Rimbaud, Henri de Monfreid and Joseph Kessel, writers and adventurers fascinated by this region.
These include:
Djibouti will also interest lovers of prehistory, who will discover over nearly 3 km, the rock engravings of the site still fortunately little known and little frequented Abourma.
Djibouti is endowed with a rich flora and fauna on land and sea, including the famous whale shark. Hiking, swimming with flippers, mask and snorkel, canoeing and kayaking will allow you to approach them.
Djibouti, located at the crossroads of the African, Asian and European continents, is a territory of cultural intermingling. This is also reflected in its gastronomy, a true "culinary melting pot": Yemeni baked fish (mukbaza), sambuussa, skudahkharis (lamb stew), chicken fadira...
The bustling city centre of Djibouti, where shops and restaurants abound, contrasts with the rural, green serenity and invigorating freshness of the campsites in the Goda Mountains.
The trips organized by Africorne Travel, beyond visiting the sites of the country, will allow you to meet its people, its culture, and experience unknown emotions and sensations, at least that is the goal we have set ourselves.

The visit of Abbé Lake and Assal Lake is organized on a circuit of 2 consecutive days. The first day is dedicated to the journey to Abbé Lake with an arrival in the late afternoon to witness the sunset. On the morning of the second day, we leave for Assal Lake after sunrise at Abbé Lake.
In 200 million years, Djibouti will undoubtedly be engulfed in a vast ocean. The continuous, albeit low-intensity, seismic tremors observed on its territory are caused by the very slow displacement (2 cm per year) of the African and Arabian plates, at the intersection of which the Republic of Djibouti is located.
But until then, we have time to enjoy the geological wonders of the country.
