Camel ride and night in the desert Camp (dinner and breakfast included), it was amazing! Everything was well organized and authentic, the staff (all locals) were friendly and helpful, and the desert experience was beautiful from start to finish. Excellent value for money, we recommend this company for those who want to visit the desert in peace and professionalism.
We spent an absolutely unforgettable night in the Merzouga Desert with Merzouga Desert Camping, and the experience exceeded all our expectations. As soon as we arrived in the village, the team welcomed us with a big smile and impeccable organization. After a short while of preparation, we left on a camel through the beautiful dunes of Erg Chebbi. The sunset over the golden dunes was simply spectacular — a timeless moment, perfect for taking pictures but above all to enjoy the silence and beauty of the Sahara. The camp was very well set up in the heart of the dunes. The tent was comfortable, clean and well equipped, with quality bedding that allowed us to spend a pleasant night. The dinner was delicious, consisting of freshly prepared traditional Moroccan dishes. We particularly enjoyed the friendly atmosphere around the campfire, with live Berber music under a sky filled with stars. Seeing the Milky Way so clearly is an experience we will never forget. The staff was attentive, professional and always available to meet our needs. You can feel that they like to share their culture and make travelers discover the magic of the desert. Waking up early to watch the sunrise over the dunes was the perfect conclusion to this adventure. The calm, the golden light and the vastness of the desert create a truly unique atmosphere. I highly recommend Merzouga Desert Camping to anyone wishing to have an authentic and memorable experience in the Moroccan desert. One night is enough to fall in love with the Sahara... but makes you want to come back longer!
We had an amazing night with merzouga desert camping . Thank you so much The staff and the food 10/10 with a lovely camel ride
It was such a good experience. The camel rides its one of the best experiences I had, we spend a magic night with dinner and listened to drums around the fire.. The hosts were really friendly and talkative. The Berber percussion ritual around the fire in the Sahara night skies is absolutely amazing.
