This 3-day desert adventure from Errachidia to Merzouga immerses you in the magic of Morocco’s Sahara. You’ll explore the stunning Erg Chebbi dunes, visit nomadic Berber families, discover hidden oases, and experience authentic desert culture. The journey includes camel trekking at sunset, a night in a traditional desert camp with Berber music under the stars, and visits to fascinating fossil mines and villages.
Your desert experience begins with arrival at Errachidia Airport, where your driver will meet you for the transfer to Merzouga. After the drive through dramatic landscapes, you’ll check into your hotel to rest for the night, preparing for your desert adventures ahead.
Start your day with breakfast before a 4×4 tour of the Erg Chebbi dunes. Visit Hassi Labied oasis to see traditional farming methods and the seasonal Sriji Lake if water is present. Explore Khamlia village for Gnawa music and the mineral-rich M’fis mines. You’ll meet a nomadic Berber family in their tent for tea and cultural exchange. After lunch in Merzouga, embark on a camel trek to your desert camp, stopping to admire the sunset and try sandboarding. At camp, enjoy mint tea, a delicious dinner, and Berber drumming under the starry sky before sleeping in your comfortable nomad tent.
Wake early for a breathtaking sunrise over the dunes before breakfast at camp. Return to Merzouga by camel or 4WD, then continue to Rissani to visit its lively market if it’s market day (Sunday, Tuesday or Thursday). Next, explore Erfoud’s famous fossil workshops before traveling through the stunning Ziz Valley with its dramatic palm-filled gorges. Your tour concludes with drop-off in Errachidia at your hotel or the airport, leaving you with unforgettable memories of your Sahara adventure.
