Looking to get a group together for pinasse - Mopti to Timbuktu

by pleagnavar Online Now Feb 16, 2009 at 12:59 PM

Hi there! We are two travelers looking to find a couple people to join in on a pinasse trip on the Niger River from Mopti to Timbuktu. Apparently because the river is lower than usual, there are not that many public pinasses running this route, and you have to book a private one. If you have any suggestions on how to do this, or would like to join the more the merrier. We will be in Mail from March 22 - April 8th, so if the dates work out anywhere in between to join up, please respond to this thread with your email, or send over an email at :pleagnavar@hotmail.com thanks!! Happy travels! :)
