The camel is such an underrated creation. Just a blessing of a beast. There is no other creation that comes close to its endurance. A vehicle for trans Sahara e-commerce for thousands of years.
Six years ago, in my 11th-grade English class, I studied 'Hitchhiking Across the Sahara' in Chapter X of our textbook. Watching this video brings back those vivid memories of the vast, majestic Sahara Desert and the incredible journey described. Truly an awe-inspiring place!
Beautiful documentary. This is the route I exactly followed in January 1991. By far the most extraordinary trip I ever did. And I had the chance to meet with Mano Dayak, the most famous Tuareg who tried to defend his people and culture and who unfortunately died in 1995.
"...exactly followed in January 1991" I dont mean to bring down the positive tone of your comment, but emphasising... a bit misleading by Adams to pretend he is a new age Sir Richard Burton like adventurer.
I just wonder why great works of art, masterpieces, make me shed tears, kudos , one of the best "documentary videos" I've seen, impeccable potography and narrative...
The Tuareg are incredible people. The likes of you and i would not last much more than a day in that desert. It has a very alluring...but deadly beauty about it.
I mean, you could say that about any people. The tuareg would not last a day in somewhere like Norway, either.. People adapt and learn how to live in their particular climate zones.
@@SoloTravelerOffTheBeatenPath I think that's a fair comment. The tuareg have adapted to their environment extremely well..as have Norwegian people to theirs. Neither would probably do very well if they swapped environments. I dont cope with heat or cold very well so i'm screwed either way 😉
OMG, this is the best video I have seen yet ... I was totally mesmerized by the landscapes and animals.... David's empathy and respect for their the culture is spot on....
Are you sure? Like it seems like at every turn he's bashing on them for being "primitive" or "violent". He seems like he's being passive aggressive and stereotyping. Like the way people live is dependent on so many factors. You can't call anyone primitive, just different.
I have a slight obsession with desert peoples (both hot and cold deserts). It amazes me that they not only survive in the most inhospitable environments, but also manage to produce beautiful objects (e.g. camel bags, jewellery).
Very educative and informative, i enjoyed every piece of it. Though my country Nigeria shared boarder with Niger Republic (about 200km from my home state Sokoto) but this is the first time I'm seeing desert, and the tuareg culture. Indeed God is great!
Wow that’s the real free life.. I was born in Africa but I had never explored Africa I really want to go in adventure trip like that ....my beautiful mother Africa
Amazing documentary I’m from Algeria and Touareg are actually my people, they’re very brave generous and knowledgeable, look at that guide I believe he never went to school but he speaks English, I live in the USA now and I see people from around the world don’t speak English as he does Thanks for the awesome documentary
One of the most fascinating voyages I have ever had the pleasure to watch on a TV screen . A highly commendable visual documentation David , of your enviable adventure with the Tuaregs & their camels , over the Tenere Desert. Love your exceedingly educative commentary too . Amazing .
Very beautifully narrated video. I was there in 1984 with my wife, three children under five and a Land Rover. We had no back-up other than 200 litres of diesel and 120 litres of water. We had our adventures and congratulate you on yours. We still have our Agadez crosses from the local silversmiths and our memories.
@@mariaconnolly6672 Maria, we set out to demonstrate that you can still travel adventurously even with young kids (three under four years old when we set off). I got a right telling off from my father for putting his grandchildren at risk. And, indeed, there were dark sides. We rolled the Landrover in Northern Cameroon and walked away with cuts and bruises. Still massively positive all in all. Thanks for your interest. Chris
Toureg people they are part of the great berber people the indiginous people of north africa a verry rich civilisation. acros the history they never accepted to be occupied they fighted all who trierd to do that from romans to frenchs. berber people they were all the time there intel arabs come from the east, and in nintyies with help of the west especialy french the arabs governed most of their land such as morocco algeria tunisia libya. and tryied to convert theme to arabs and marginalise their culture thats why most of the people in world thinks that they are arabs what is absolutly false they are the great berbers with their beutiful culture and rich languige
RaYah I One thing I can tell you for sure, Africa is one of the most corrupt places on the planet........Not by the white man,it is our greedy black leaders........ The rich black leaders of Africa sold us as slaves and they are still killing and starving there own people.........You should at least know that much.
@Truth Only Not true , are you African yourself to say this !!!??? l'm from Niger and people in sahara have all shades of brown skin color and defferent shades of light skin as well. so we have all the skin colors of Africa in our country.
"They don't camp within 5 miles of water so their children won't take it for granted" That's possibly the most profound statement I've ever heard about something so basic and taken for granted by so many people.
I am on a huge David Adams documentary binge thanks to Timeline and loving every second of it. His work is some of the best documentaries I have ever had the pleasure of seeing. For anyone interested, I also highly recommend documentaries by John Romer.
Really enjoying this, it's like an old fashioned adventure novel or something. Most other documentaries made about African countries tend to only focus on how miserable they are.
@@tardigrade9493 As a female, I agree. Women are a gift from the Creator!! Shameful to treat any of God's creations so terribly. Change must come. The "Golden Rule" tells a lot about a person's character, strong men are good examples (not meaning in physical strength) :-) watch those families where females and animals bloom, bc they are respected, and loved. Huge difference. Also equality. Want love?? Give love...... I get off my soapbox now. :-) Next??? my best. (working together is where it is @!!)
My Dad always would say. if you would not want this to happen to you, then Do Not Do it!! We all have choices. Make them lovingly and wisely too. :-) everything is a chain reaction..... smile....

Thank you for sharing this terrific experience. You made the most beautiful film I ever saw about the desert and its people. And a mere idea of duna-skiing there was absolutely breathtaking! Good luck for your new ventures
A strangely beautiful land and amazing people. I've often wondered about people, freedom, and happiness. These people, and others around the world who exist without the modern conveniences so many take for granted, seem happier and freer than those who live with the modern conveniences. Very nice video.
Amazing deserted place. Wonderful cinematography. Your adventure & endeavour are highly admirable. Travelled most remote & desert region. The land is real land of fear. Thanks for exhibiting wonderful information .
What a most beautiful people's and culture, what amazing beauty in such a barren place. Thankyou for showing us this place and its peoples. Kia ora from us here in new Zealand ❤
Amazing documentary. What an incredible people the Tuareg are, nothing but respect and admiration for them and their way of life. God bless them for another 1000 years.

Damn, the Tuareg sound like the Fremen of Dune with their strong knowledge of the desert, conserving water, etc. I wonder if they were the inspiration for them.
While l haven't the wealth, the health or freedom to travel, l have always wanted to see the extremities where most people don't venture-- to see a volcano, an iceberg in the Arctic, and this- ride a camel through the desert. I love Animals and have always thought of Camels as a very noble and beautiful Animal. "The Ship of the Desert" Just like drinkable water is the oil of the desert, but worth more!

The production of this video was done very well. I do wish it covered more of the people and markets. I would like to see more on clothing and shoe making along with food procurement that this video does not cover. I would like to see leather tannery in the desert and how they make their clothing.

In Fez, there's the world heritage site for leather tannery. I visited Morocco in 2015 and 2017.I would like to visit chefchaouen again
Nagy élmény volt ezt a filmet végignézmni. Közben ezek a vacak kicsinyes reklámok zavarják meg az élményt csupán. Látni az Életet, és közben a kreált vágyakat a reklámokban. Döbbenet. Hálás köszönet a filmért. 🙏🙏
I have enjoyed the whole video indeed, where am happy to see the Tuareg and the Caravan after learning in our school about them.... watching from Kenya

My friends think I’m nuts but I identify with that place. I was raised in a high desert in Eastern Washington, USA. As a young teenager I was reluctantly moved to Seattle, a land of rain. I hated it. Finally escaping I eventually left for health to Hawaii to find it’s actually much a desert. Life brought me back but I immediately left for the Eastern Oregon high country, then Utah and Nevada. I didn’t realize why really. I just followed a feeling. I ended up traveling the Black Rock desert, the Mohave and the Sonoran all the way to Mexico before returning due to COVID closures. Seeing this stirs me to begin again, perhaps a new continent 😎. I’ve finally found myself. I love deserts.
@@hannahr77 that is the most ignorant thing i have read in while, and thats impressive, but not in a good way. You do realize Islam is a religion that has many many cultures, some of those cultures being the most important to our own current western civilization. Up untill 1970s the majority of our western culture were neo-moorish buildings all over the face of this planet, basically all western countries immitated the middle eastern building style. Most of our modern sciences have evolved from middle eastern sciences which at that time were almost all followers of Islam. Just because a group of people in a remote area do no have the capability to evolve culturally does not make them unevolved, they would last longer out there then any of us would.

In Fez, there's the world heritage site for leather tannery. I visited Morocco in 2015 and 2017.I would like to visit chefchaouen again
Great documentary, a good watch. Thanks for the upload.
Just caught on to these amazing docs from David, great stuff from a game Aussie.
Nagy élmény volt ezt a filmet végignézmni. Közben ezek a vacak kicsinyes reklámok zavarják meg az élményt csupán. Látni az Életet, és közben a kreált vágyakat a reklámokban. Döbbenet. Hálás köszönet a filmért. 🙏🙏
Wow...that was one heck of a journey I followed you on...since I'm half asleep already, this felt very much like a dream.
I have enjoyed the whole video indeed, where am happy to see the Tuareg and the Caravan after learning in our school about them.... watching from Kenya
I adore these journeys, David Adams. Thank you.
Vos reportages sont captivants, ils impressionnent l'esprit. Vous savez capturer l'âme des lieux, des gens et des animaux. On en ressort plus évolué, de vos documentaires, très haute fréquence visuelle.
I know its sounds stupid but there is something so comforting about a british person exploring. Not even joking it just feels right.
A beautiful documentary of the Tenere and the people living of the land.
Extraordinary documentary!!
Dune skiing was awesome. Made it look easier than it is.
From Kenya🇰🇪, absolutely enjoying every bit of a life experience inherited over generation 🏜️ navigators
I enjoyed your guides singing so much I went & looked up Tuareg music. WoW ! I have a new play list to go with my mongolian metal rock, Tuvian throat singing, Scottish drums (Clanadonia) ...
Try Tinariwen and Bombino
@@TheNomadFoundation I found Tinariwen when I did a search. Love them, added to one of my play lists. Bombino I will look up for tomorrows selection :) I have several frieinds who share my eclectic musical tastes, we have been enjoying the musical adventure. From Germany to 3 farms down the road. Thank you. & if you have any others you's like to share, any style, type... Please do !
You (& others) may enjoy this group as well. Taureg with a jazz, blues, even a smattering of rock like styles infused in traditional Taureg musical style. Aridel
Bird Kooistra TheNomadFoundation I wish it were possible to bookmark RUclips comments for later. Although it wasn’t directed at me, thank you both for the musical journey! If you have any other suggestions, I would be very grateful.
As soon as you begin to speak, I click the LIKE button, and thank you for giving so much valuable information to us. I hope you continue your journeys, at least, as long as I am ALIVE!
My friends think I’m nuts but I identify with that place. I was raised in a high desert in Eastern Washington, USA. As a young teenager I was reluctantly moved to Seattle, a land of rain. I hated it. Finally escaping I eventually left for health to Hawaii to find it’s actually much a desert. Life brought me back but I immediately left for the Eastern Oregon high country, then Utah and Nevada. I didn’t realize why really. I just followed a feeling. I ended up traveling the Black Rock desert, the Mohave and the Sonoran all the way to Mexico before returning due to COVID closures. Seeing this stirs me to begin again, perhaps a new continent 😎. I’ve finally found myself. I love deserts.
Awesome documentary
Thanks for this amazingly wonderful and nice film. And I have my hat off to you for it and your stunning ski go-down. My best whishes to you!
We could learn so much from the remaining ancient nomads tribes. One day we may need the information for our own restart ands survival.
yeah right especially the sword, this proves that islam hasn't moved an inch since the year 700
@@hannahr77 I,m sure their women love their freedom in that culture. LOL
like how to stay livign in the 15th century???? yeah, no thanks.
@@hannahr77 that is the most ignorant thing i have read in while, and thats impressive, but not in a good way.
You do realize Islam is a religion that has many many cultures, some of those cultures being the most important to our own current western civilization.
Up untill 1970s the majority of our western culture were neo-moorish buildings all over the face of this planet, basically all western countries immitated the middle eastern building style.
Most of our modern sciences have evolved from middle eastern sciences which at that time were almost all followers of Islam.
Just because a group of people in a remote area do no have the capability to evolve culturally does not make them unevolved, they would last longer out there then any of us would.
@@Crashed131963 right. feminism thrives in ISLAM!!!!!!
This is one of my most favourite documentaries.
That camel ride looked so cool! You looked like a cowboy riding with a Touareg :-D...oooh, and that sand ski was dope!!!
