Overview

Chad has plenty to see. The Ennedi Desert has rock arches that few tourists ever see. Lakes here used to be bigger – now they’re shrinking fast. N’Djamena works as a base, but most interesting spots need 4x4s and permits. Markets sell silver jewelry and leather goods and the local tea is sweet but strong.
