  • 5Marrakesh to Merzouga 2 Day: Sept 26

    One of the best experiences you can do for the desert if you are short on time. A lot of traveling in the 2 Days but Moha made the drive good fun and with a lot of stops every few hours. The camel riding, sand surfing and sunset/sunrise made the long journey worth it. All in all a great experience.

  • 5Never thought I’d experience this!

    Everything was top tier, it definitely exceeded expectations. Our driver Ibrahim was fantastic with great explanations of the history behind our stops along the way and any further questions we had. At the dessert the staff was also amazing and incredibly hospitable. The layout was amazing as you get to meet new people from across the world

  • 5Amazing trip!!

    Fantastic trip and great value for money. Was exactly as expected if not better. Our driver Ibrahim was great. The journey took almost 10 hours and was long but well worth it. Ibrahim made it as easy as he could and had plenty of stops for food and toilet. The Sahara itself was amazing. The accommodation and food was great for the money we paid. Definitely a must do experience it's well worth the long drive!!!

  • 52-day tour to Merzouga

    I did the 2-day tour to Merzouga, and it was such a lovely experience! I highly recommend it, especially for anyone who is short on time but still wants to experience the desert. Our driver Mohcine was so sweet and fun and played a huge part in making the trip so enjoyable! We were picked up and dropped off directly at our hotels, and along the way we also got to stop at some really cool sightseeing spots. Overall, I had an amazing experience and would definitely recommend this tour!

About Merzouga

Merzouga is a village at the edge of the Erg Chebbi dunes in Morocco's Sahara, where camel treks and desert camps head out among tall golden dunes.

Merzouga lies in the south-east of Morocco, not far from the Algerian border, at the edge of Erg Chebbi, a sea of orange dunes that rise as high as about 150 metres. The village is a scatter of flat-roofed mud-brick and concrete houses, with guesthouses and kasbah-style hotels set along the dune edge. The surrounding landscape is stony desert, scattered with oases and dry riverbeds.
