Said picked us up on time in fact he was there waiting ahead of time. We got straight into it & what a ride over the sand dunes, visiting nomads, having tea, listening to music, singing, dancing & much more. Said was our driver and explained everything really well even though at times it was a little difficult but ended up understanding what he meant once arriving to our destination. He was funny, was super helpful at taking photos & very accommodating if we wanted to stop and take extra pictures. The sand dunes was an experience and is a must do, just buckle up, hold on and enjoy the ride, it’s heaps of fun. Go for it!!

We had an unforgettable day exploring Merzouga with friends in a 4x4 Toyota! The whole experience felt like an authentic adventure, and we got to see so much of the desert's beauty. Our first stop was the peaceful Merzouga Lake, where we soaked in the calm and stunning views. Next, we visited the nomads, and it was amazing to see how they live in such a remote and challenging environment. They welcomed us warmly, and it gave us a real sense of life in the desert. Also a lively place where we got to experience the rich culture of the Gnawa people. Their music was powerful and unforgettable, creating a great vibe for the day. It was such a well-organized trip, and everything from start to finish was perfect. Definitely a must-do if you're in Merzouga! a big thanks to Ahmed.

My family and I booked our desert excursion online. Ahmed was very professional and responded to our questions very quickly. Once we get to Merzouga village we meet him, he speaks very well English and he explain a lot of things about their culture and about the nomadic life. We really enjoyed the trip, and we had a great time together, We highly recommend to anyone who wants to see what the desert has to offer.

The 4x4 desert jeep tour was an exciting journey into the heart of nature's wonderland. Crossing the dunes, the ride was exhilarating and offered stunning views around every corner. Meeting the nomadic communities was the jewel of the tour, providing an authentic insight into their traditions and resilience. Visiting old mines added a historical dimension and revealed stories from the region's past. Visiting Khamlia village and listening to Gnawa music was a moving experience. The rhythms and melodies wove a cultural tapestry, All in all, the Jeep 4x4 is worth experiencing.

We had great day out with Ahmed.L. in the Sahara desert, He picked us up the right time. He is knowledgeable about his area and we learnt a lot about his country specially the desert. we visit different places including a small Oasis, Barium Sulphate mine, Also visited black town where we listen to the Gnawa music 🎵. passed by nomads communities and learnt about their life-style. before we return back Ahmed took us to the highest sand dunes in the area and we climbed it by our food the view from there is breathtaking. We highly recommend this excursion.
