Journey to the Sahara: Camel Ride and Overnight in Merzouga's Desert Camp
Dades Gorges →Tinghir → Todra Gorges →Tinjdad → Erfoud → Merzouga.
After our breakfast, we depart from Dades gorges for the Erg Chebbi Sahara Desert in Merzouga. Berber villages are scattered along the way, we’ll pass through Tinjdad, Jorf and Erfoud in which we’ll feel the beginning of the Saharan oasis of Tafilalet, and then we continue to Merzouga. After relaxing for a few minutes in Merzouga, we will be going to ride the camels that are waiting to take us on an adventure in the sand dunes. The night will be spent in traditional nomad haimas which is a tented camp, with drumming music in the middle of the Sahara. This is a great opportunity to take lovely pictures of the sunset and if you wish to get up early, also the sunrise. When we arrive at the camp we go to some high dunes to see the sunset, afterwards there will be a typical Berber dinner prepared for you and eaten round the campfire and we will spend the night in nomad tents.
