It really is the best way to explore the changing contrasts of this country, Berber villages, Atlas Mountains and my favourite the magical desert / camel trip. I would recommend the Luxury camp without fail, it is definitely worth the extra money to fully experience a star lit night in the desert with great food, beautiful hospitality and private showers/Toilets.
