We wouldn't think twice about trying it again. - The camel ride we had across the Merzouga desert was fantastic. The tour guide was cordial and spent time talking with us. It was an unforgettable experience to watch the sun set in the desert. The camp itself was stunning, and we had a wonderful evening around a roaring fire after a sumptuous dinner.

We enjoyed the trip, Breakfast and dinner were excellent, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. Thanks. - Our experience was simply excellent from beginning to end. Its price was definitely warranted. Our kids pleasantly swam in the pool while anticipating the trip, and the hotel staff was incredibly friendly. The next morning's breakfast was delicious, and our kids had a joy riding the camels. We enjoyed the breathtaking morning and sunset views. The camp's eating and restroom facilities were amazingly up to date. We had a lovely dinner with plenty of food to keep us from going hungry.

Mesmerizing Sahara Experience - This desert adventure was beyond incredible. The camel trek into the dunes at sunset was pure magic. The campsite was comfortable and beautifully lit at night. The guides were not only knowledgeable but also great company. The food was delicious, and sandboarding was a thrilling way to cap off the experience. Don't miss out on this gem!
