The 153 Club

The 153 Club is for Sahara Desert travellers. The Club takes its name from the old Michelin 153 map of NW Africa. The Club membership has grown to include not only travellers, but professionals who have lived or worked in NW Africa. We have three regular meetings each year plus other impromptu outings, and are able to keep up-to-date with the area through the quarterly Newsletter.

Our aim is to maintain a membership of around 153 people and at present we have a few vacancies. The only criterion for Club membership is to have worked or travelled within the confines of the old Michelin map 153 (now sadly 953 or 971), principally covering the Sahara and adjoining countries.


Subscriptions run from 1 October to 30 September. The subscription is £10 (sterling cheque, or £10.60 sterling by Paypal—details in rtf file) per annum for 4 issues of the Newsletter. To apply for membership of The 153 Club, download THIS rtf FILE .
