DESERT ACTIVITIES

On a timeless journey through the heart of the Sahara with our unforgettable camel trekking adventure. Starting from Merzouga or the majestic Erg Chebbi dunes, this experience lets you travel as the nomads once did — slowly swaying atop a camel, surrounded by endless golden sands.

As the sun begins to set, the desert transforms into a palette of warm colors, painting the dunes in shades of gold, orange, and crimson. You’ll pause atop one of the highest dunes to witness this breathtaking spectacle — one of the most magical sunsets in Morocco.

Afterward, continue your trek to a traditional Berber desert camp, where you’ll be welcomed with mint tea, enjoy a delicious Moroccan dinner under the stars, and listen to rhythmic drum music by the campfire. Fall asleep in a cozy tent beneath the clear, star-filled sky — a true Sahara dream come to life.
