About This Experience

This three-day journey turns Ouarzazate into your front door to the Sahara. You travel through valleys and gorges before reaching Merzouga, where the dunes deliver the classic desert moment done with comfort and good timing.

Along the way you stop for canyon walks, viewpoints, and kasbah roads that make the drive part of the experience. In Merzouga, a sunset camel trek carries you into the Erg Chebbi dunes, followed by dinner and a desert camp night under the stars.

With accommodation included and a clear plan each day, you can relax and focus on the experience. You return with sunrise photos, desert silence, and a stronger sense of the south’s scale and beauty.

Great tour overall. The desert camping was magical - sleeping under the stars in the Sahara is something everyone should experience. The camel ride at sunset was the highlight!

This exceeded all our expectations. From the kasbahs to the blue streets of Chefchaouen, every moment was picture-perfect. The small group size made it feel very personal.
