★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 558 reviews · 2 days · from $70Our pick

Meet Koro or Aicha at Hotel Kasbah Mohayut, then take a Jeep to the camel park for a two-day Erg Chebbi trek. Ride across the dunes with guides such as Mohamed, Hamid, or Mostafa, stopping for sunset, sandboarding, tagine, drumming, and sunrise. The camp is comfortable but close enough to Merzouga for town lights to show.

“A really cool experience :-) Nice trip through the desert to the camp, a lot, and I mean A LOT of delicious, Moroccan food and funny dances at the campfire. The highlight of the trip for me was the morning trek on the camel during the sunrise - amazing views and the guide was making me laugh through the journey. Special thanks to Ali who helped me navigate the way to Merzouga as there were a lot of road closures. I had to take a big detour to get to Merzouga and even though I was late, I still got to participate :-)”

Nikt nie wie, kogo ma zabrać, my nie wiedzieliśmy, kto nas odbierze. Nie były auta w żaden sposób oznakowane. Chaos totalny, a przy 47 st ciepła powstaje niepotrzebna irytacja.”
