Sahara Desert
Merzouga - After a hearty breakfast, an exciting 4×4 tour awaits. We’ll visit fascinating desert caves, home to natural desert fossils. Following the road used by the Paris Dakar rally, we traverse the desert, with its striking black volcanic rocks, and have the opportunity to meet a Tuareg family in the Khamlia village. This village is renowned for its African population and vibrant music, including an annual music and dance festival held in the first week of August.
Returning to the hotel, the day’s highlight awaits as you embark on a camel ride, meandering through the dunes to reach a desert camp. Here, you’ll experience an enchanting evening filled with Berber music, sandboarding, and an overnight stay under the starlit desert sky.

Tonight, you’ll stay in the serene Skoura palm grove, famously known as the Valley of Kasbahs. However, you can opt to spend the night in the Dades Valley or the enchanting city of Ouarzazate.
