Amazing!

5.00This desert vacation was honestly one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. From the moment we arrived, everything felt unreal—the endless golden dunes, the absolute silence broken only by the wind, and the sky that seemed bigger and brighter than anywhere else I’ve ever been. Watching the sunset over the desert was pure magic, with colors shifting from gold to deep orange and pink, like something straight out of a movie.
Felt like home

5.00Our overnight stay in the Merzouga desert was absolutely magical, and upgrading from the standard camp to the luxury camp made all the difference. From the moment we arrived, everything felt special and thoughtfully arranged. The luxury tent was spacious, beautifully decorated, and incredibly comfortable, with a proper bed, private bathroom, hot shower, and all the little details that make you forget you’re in the middle of the Sahara. The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, always smiling and making sure we were comfortable. Dinner was delicious and generous, followed by an amazing evening around the campfire with traditional music under a sky full of stars: an experience we’ll never forget. Waking up early to watch the sunrise over the dunes was breathtaking, and the peaceful silence of the desert was truly something special. If you’re considering whether the luxury camp upgrade is worth it, the answer is absolutely yes. This was one of the highlights of our Morocco
Camel and typical evening in the desert

5.00The desert experience was very suggestive. The tour left Merzouga at 5pm with the camel. After 2 hours of camel ride we arrived at the camp with tents, shortly after sunset, and were offered tea with typical biscuits. Tents were assigned, there was an hour break/relaxation and, after that, the buffet dinner. After dinner the fire was lit and we had the opportunity to sit around to participate in typical songs and dances. The evening ended admiring the stars. The next day, the alarm clock to see the sunrise was at 7:30, then the breakfast buffet and the departure (by camel or off-road for free or by quad bike for a supplement)
Great desert experience

Camel ride in the sunset

5.00Very nice ride on dromedaries through the dune field Erg Chebbi of Western Sahara. In the afternoon, after shopping for drinks, we arrived at the meeting point where we could park our car in the shade in a secure parking lot and from where our luggage was taken to the camp. As the day drew to a close, we rode on dromedaries into the Erg Chebbi dune field of Western Sahara - a picturesque landscape of reddish desert sand shaped by the wind. Really great experience with actually everything you can imagine - from the scenery to the actions and food to spacious tents with private bathrooms.
