It is certainly true that Mali has incredible assets that make a visit to this country a real pleasure. Its natural beauty and raw mixed with its generous people and welcoming hypnotic form a combination that captivates all travelers to both new and old. While all this is true, your first quest and perhaps one of your most difficult when you are traveling in Mali is to escape the limits of the airport with your sanity intact. Mali is a poor country and Unemployment is a real and pervasive problem.

OMATHO, Tourism Council of Mali, in their wisdom, has found that this complete lack of control has led to some rather horrible experiences by passengers who either by deliberate mismanagement by their false guide or incompetence of a seducer inexperienced "Had their dream experience to turn into a nightmare Mali.

These guides are responsible to the board of tourism, so if they try to be honest or less missing your expectations in every way, then you have possible remedies if necessary.
