Tour Overview & Experience

Step into our exclusive desert camp where five-star comfort meets the untamed beauty of the Sahara. Featuring spacious carpeted canvas suites, king-sized beds with plush linens, ensuite bathrooms with running hot water, electricity, private chef dining, and live campfire drumming under the desert stars.

Day-by-Day Detailed Itinerary

Day 1

Check-in & Sunset Camel Trek

Arrive in the Saharan village of Merzouga in the late afternoon, where warm mint tea awaits before you meet your gentle camel caravan at the foot of the towering Erg Chebbi dunes (with luggage transferred directly by 4x4). Ride peacefully across golden sand ridges as the setting sun paints the Sahara in amber and crimson, arriving at your private luxury en-suite tent for a multi-course Berber dinner and live Amazigh drumming around the campfire.

Day 2

Sunrise & Gourmet Breakfast

Climb the soft sand ridge right outside your luxury tent at dawn to witness a tranquil Sahara sunrise painting the Erg Chebbi dunes in warm gold and rose hues. After a hot en-suite shower and a generous Moroccan breakfast of crepes, pastries, eggs, fresh fruit, and mint tea, ride your camel peacefully—or take a private 4x4 transfer—back across the dunes to Merzouga village.
