The Camel House is like a song of the desert - Is the Sahara more starry or more sandy? You may find the answer when you come to the "Camel House".
Here, Mohammed, the owner of the Camel House, will take you to enjoy the desert fun brought by sand-sweeping motorcycles, hiking, camel riding, and four-wheel drive tours at the most fair price.
Here, you are immersed in Mohammed's tent, deep into the heart of the desert, surrounded by undulating sand dunes, and the highest peak of Merzouga is close at hand; there is no trace of other camps around, and in the vast world, you and I, who are so small, seem to be able to appreciate the meaning of life better.
Here, you feel the unique historical heritage and humanistic feelings nurtured by the vast land of Sahara, like a book, like a song, and more like a poem. Mohammed was born in the desert and grew up in the sand dunes. He was once the most traditional nomadic people on this land. Because of raising camels, he had savings, and finally settled down and opened the Camel House.
At Camel House, you can experience not just a simple desert trip, but the desert feelings that blend and coexist with this magical land. Mohammed's hands are the roughest I have ever held, and his gestures are filled with the most simple and kind nature of the Berbers.
Every day at Camel House, you will immerse yourself in every wonder and beauty of the desert.
If you want to feel the true beauty of the desert on your trip to the Sahara, Camel House is the best choice.

Great experience - We leave with lots of excellent memories. Discovered this extraordinary Sahara desert. We were able to enjoy a magical arrival on the back of a camel, a very comfortable night and the next day traveled some dunes in a 4x4.

Perfect desert visit - All perfect. From the reception in Merzouga, then by camel (extra €25/camel) to the camp, approximately one hour. Very delicious typical dinner. Sleeping in the tent, the bed is a little hard but we already know what we are getting into when we decide to sleep in a camp in the desert. See sunrise and return. Abundant breakfast and they allow you to have a room and shower. Friendly, multilingual staff

Immersive experience with the desert spirit. - Really good host and experience!
Mohammed was very hospitable and welcoming.
The night in the desert is magnificent especially in the later hours around 04:00 am. Really recommend staying till late as it’s the best time to watch stars.
We had great experience playing on local instruments with our guides and eating delicious foods such as tagin in the desert prepared by Ali and Ismail.
Breakfast was great, made of local ingredients. We prefer desert and people outside the Marrakech.

Best experience ever! - We had a great time with Mohamed. I had already been there with my girlfriend in 2014. 10 years and 2 children (2 years and 4 years) later, we didn't regret going back to Camel's House. First, we stayed at his beautiful hotel with well-equipped rooms. He spoils you with delicious food, both breakfast and dinner. The next day, we went out with the camel for an unforgettable night in the desert. We will never forget this experience and Mohamed's kindness. We will come back for a 3rd time.
