Morocco to Timbuktu: An Arabian Adventure - Episode Guide

In this first episode Alice sets off from Tangier, Europe's gateway to Africa, and learns how gold was in high demand in North Africa, to be minted into coins and adorn palaces. Its source was the gold mines of sub-Saharan Africa and so the routes across the desert were forged.

In the second and final episode of this Arabian adventure, explorer Alice Morrison is in the vast Sahara, three and a half million square miles of desert, on an epic camel trek over the dunes on her journey to Timbuktu.
