About this tour
Going to the desert and crossing it is a wonderful experience to clear the mind and leave all daily thoughts and worries beside you. The desert and its dunes stretch for miles and miles. Life settles into a timeless routine of local tea and fresh bread, walking, taking a lunch break for a fresh salad and a tagine. You will enjoy riding a camel in the dunes: admire the sunset, have a delicious local meal, campfire. music, singing and a night under the stars like you’ve never seen before. Mysticism and exoticism merge in a unique nature: the dunes of Merzouga welcome you.
600 km from Marrakech, after crossing the Tizi nTicka pass and its valleys as different as they are exceptional, Quarzazate marks the entrance to the great south. The road takes us north between fragrant valleys and gorges where the wadis wind their way along beautiful oases. Merzouga arises 50km from Erfoud, in the heart of Tafilalet and at the foot of the great dune of Erg Chebbi.
