You ride from Merzouga into Erg Chebbi with a live guide such as Mohammed, Hamid, or Mostafa, stopping for sunset and sandboarding before dinner, drums, and a night in a Berber tent. A Jeep transfer, pool access, tea, dinner, breakfast, and morning camel ride are included.

“A really cool experience :-) Nice trip through the desert to the camp, a lot, and I mean A LOT of delicious, Moroccan food and funny dances at the campfire. The highlight of the trip for me was the morning trek on the camel during the sunrise - amazing views and the guide was making me laugh through the journey. Special thanks to Ali who helped me navigate the way to Merzouga as there were a lot of road closures. I had to take a big detour to get to Merzouga and even though I was late, I still got to participate :-)”

“Sama atrakcja niesamowita, wrażenia cudne. Niestety organizacja przed pozostawia pole do poprawy. Miejsce zbiórki to zwykły parking, na który przyjeżdżają rożni przewoźnicy. Nikt nie wie, kogo ma zabrać, my nie wiedzieliśmy, kto nas odbierze. Nie były auta w żaden sposób oznakowane. Chaos totalny, a przy 47 st ciepła powstaje niepotrzebna irytacja.”
