Fun experience. Communication could be better. Bring your own food bc theirs isn’t so great.

There was a bit of miscommunication and shuffling us around between starting points and which camels to ride on so that part was annoying. We were told to be there at 4pm but didnt get onto the camels until well after 5:30. The dinner food was not very good at all, probably the worst meal we had in 10 days, and they charged for extra water at dinner which I thought was a bit cheap. The tent itself was nice and the fire (albeit very short) and the music were nice. The camel ride was fun as well. The starts were good but I’ve seen better. The workers were nice but not nearly as nice as the we had been experiencing the rest of the trip.

🌅 Unforgettable Night Under the Sahara Stars with Merzouga Desert Experience!

We spent one unforgettable night in the desert, and I can honestly say it was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. The camel ride through the dunes was peaceful, and the view at sunset was breathtaking. Our private tent felt like a five-star hotel in the middle of the Sahara — beautifully designed, clean, and complete with a private shower and toilet. The hosts went above and beyond to make us comfortable. The food was fresh, the music joyful, and the quiet of the desert at night was soul-refreshing.

Unforgettable Night Under the Stars – Luxury Desert Camp with Private Tent!

This was definitely hands down the best experience we had in Morocco. The camel ride was relaxing and beautiful, and our guide was so wonderful! Dinner under the stars with jamming by the campfire, and a super cozy tent no question, it doesn’t get better than this. I would give it 10 stars if I could!

Amazing camp and amazing staff. Considering how remote the camp is, it is well equipped with everything you might need. The show at the evening was also incredible.

Great Experience

The camp itself was surprisingly comfortable and well-equipped, given its remote location. Our tent was cozy, spacious, and beautifully designed, with comfy bedding, lanterns, and small touches that made it feel special. The campfire at the center of the camp added to the magic of the desert night, and we were treated to a traditional meal under the stars—such a memorable experience!

Wonderful experience.

It was a wonderful experience, the beautiful places we visited, the delicious food and the willingness of all those in charge allowed me to fall in love with their country and culture. I always felt comfortable and that allowed me to enjoy that paradise much more.
