At the beginning of our tour we visited the Gnaoua in the Khamlia village listened to traditional music, danced with them and enjoyed a cup of tea soaking in the lively atmosphere. Then we went to Old Merzouga, exploring its history and the places where the French used to work on mascara, learning fascinating stories about the town. After that, we visited the desert nomads, got to know them, and discovered how they live skillfully in the desert. We ended the day strolling across the sand dunes and golden sands, enjoying the peace and natural beauty of the desert. The whole experience was full of excitement fun and authentic moments that we will never forget

Our day trip in Merzouga with Ahmed in the Jeep was an unforgettable experience! He took us off the beaten path to explore stunning desert landscapes, traditional villages, and hidden spots we would never have found on our own. Ahmed’s knowledge, kindness, and fun spirit made the journey even more enjoyable. The highlight was watching the dunes change colors with the sunset—absolutely magical. Highly recommend this tour!

Hassan what a man, he helped us from A to Z. Very chilling man, who can drive well! not pushy just good. He took us to all the cool places in and around merzuga, and of course right through and over the dunes. This was so cool! Don't be afraid, he floats from dune to dune in the car. Really a must have experience!

Guide Hassan was great. Being from a local Berber family he knows the people and the area very well. On top of this he is an experienced 4wd driver. Worth every penny

It was all perfect,Mohamed our guide was the best of everything apart from the experience that everything should try, riding in the desert with the 4x4 is very fun and a feeling of immense freedom!

We took these jeeps out to the dunes.What a riot our drivers were great. We raced each other over the desert and thru a few small settlements.They even stopped at a Berber area so we could visit and get into the tents and see how they lived.We did the sunset camel ride so racing back was a rush.No streetlights or town lights, just the stars and headlights. These guys can drive and all I can say is if we ever go back this is a must-do (again)

Fabulous. The best part of our holiday was the hospitality of the staff were so kind and friendly. We had a sunset By Jeep ride which was so memorable and the overall experience was wonderful. Youssef and everyone were very attentive, yet struck the balance between offering privacy. Our family all had the best time, and would highly recommend it to anyone
