Ride camels across Erg Chebbi, sandboard, eat tagine, drum by the fire, and sleep in a Berber camp beneath Sahara stars.

“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 :-)”

Review of a Merzouga overnight camp with camel ride, sunset, Berber dinner, drumming, sunrise, and practical booking tips.

“kameelrijden in de duinen waren we erg tevreden over. ook over de kameelbegeleider. hij zorgde voor een echte belevenis we waren niet tevreden over gemaakte afspraken. we werden niet opgehaald in het hotel en werden door hotelpersoneel naar het trefpunt gebracht. echter hadden we twee punten. trefpunt in de voucher en pick-up punt aangegeven door 3trafel. na overleg de volgende dag werden we wel teruggebracht maar we moesten er zelf over beginnen. ook was er geen gids aanwezig zoals gemeld in de voucher. Al met al hebben we zelf veel moeten regelen met de nodige stress en kosten.”
