Upon arrival at a hotel in Merzouga, guests can relax briefly before packing a small bag with essentials for the night in the desert, leaving the rest of the luggage at the hotel. The group will then embark on a camel ride adventure across the Erg Chebbi sand dunes, offering a wonderful opportunity to capture beautiful sunset and sunrise photos. Upon reaching the camp, camels are left behind as guests walk to the highest sand dunes for sandboarding and to watch the sunset. The night is spent in a camp (Berber nomad tents) with drumming music in the heart of the Sahara.

Embarking on a three-day journey from Marrakech to Erg Chebbi dunes at Merzouga in the Sahara Desert represents one of the finest routes to take in Morocco. All tour operators present it as their premier offering. Essentially, every itinerary is identical, with the distinction arising from the standard of service, the professionalism of the drivers, the selection of lodgings, and established relationships with all the businesses involved in this tour such as guides, eateries, and accommodations. Our experience in providing this tour ensures our guests always receive a warm welcome and excellent service. This expedition spans a vast portion of Morocco and exposes you to a diverse mix of scenery, attractions, and cultures. The final leg of the journey, which is a long drive from Merzouga back to Marrakech, can be quite tiresome, hence, we advise guests, particularly those with young children, to consider the extended four-day tour when possible.
