A great experience. - This walk was one of the highlights of our time in Morocco. An opportunity to experience the peace and tranquility of the desert with a small number of people, away from some of the larger activities. We loved having the time to be still, take in the vastness of it, and feel the desert under our feet. Simple yet awe inspiring. Ahmed has a great respect for the dunes and it was fascinating to hear about his life growing up in the local area. Having this in depth time with a local person felt like a rare opportunity. I would say the walk is achievable for an average fitness level. The temperature was perfect in the evening.

Lovely walk in the desert with calm and knowledgeable guide. - This was definitely one of our funnest outings in Merzouga. Probably one of the best ways to explore the dunes is by foot. Yes, it's fun by buggy, but to really drink in the full experience and see the sunset you need to walk out there and be in the midst of it. Highly recommended 🤩

To do absolutely!! - Contact before the activity was effective and quick. Our camel ride for sunset was super nice. We were very well accompanied by the camel Rachid, a very kind, helpful and committed young man. Thank you to Rachid and Ahmed for this memorable experience. We recommend this activity, extraordinary and memorable!!!

Special Walk - It's been one of the most beautiful canine experiences I've ever had. The desert has incredible magic and strength. Everything thanks to Ahmed the boy who guided us was amazing. Your conversation, your silence, your laughter. Super generous, paid us the taxi back to town I definitely recommend walking in the desert. A whole experience

Best experience in the desert! - We did a walking tour with Ahmed through the desert. Even though it listed, the tour might get canceled if we are not enough people, he set off with me and my partner. Experiencing the desert by foot was by far the best decision! Ahmed provided great knowledge, guided us through the dunes, showed us the most amazing views and places we would've never have gotten to alone. 10/10 would recommend and couldn't be happier to have booked this guided tour!

Evening magic in the Sahara dunes - A magnificent 2-hour walk for three in the dunes at sunset with Ahmed. He knew how to make us feel all the magic of the Sahara. The beauty of the colors, the silence, the footsteps of the animals in the sand. Ahmed loves his Sahara and brings it to life for us.

Great way to explore Erg Chebbi - We took this walking tour in September 2023. It was an amazing experience! The desert was beautiful and it was especially amazing after sunset when it got really quite. Our guide was a very genuine and kind men who knew a lot about the desert, its people and the surroundings. Walking was the perfect way for us to explore the desert as it isn't as loud as the quads and doesn't involve (the risk of) animal abuse. The walking required a normal condition and the guide stopped if we needed a break.

100% recommended experience - We had a really good experience with the local guide Ahmed. It is ideal if you want to really enjoy and feel the dunes. It is also a very good opportunity to have contact with a local guide, to ask him some questions and have a conversation with him. He is very nice and we had a really good time with him.

Wonderful trip with local guide. - We loved the trip in the Sahara dunes, that changed colours during the walk. Meanwile talking with the local guide was a pleasure. We learned a lot from him about Morocco and it's inhabitants. Highly recommend if you do not want to go on a camelback.
