Highlights

Meet up - Camel ride - Arrival to the camp

Merzouga Desert - Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga is spending the night in a desert camp, and watching the sun go down over the sand dunes.

This overnight camel trip starts from the Hotel in Merzouga in the afternoon (4–5 p.m., depending on the season).
The duration of camel ride takes about an hour and a half to get to the Desert camp, which includes a break to rest, climb the dunes for great views of the sunset, take pictures, and sandboard.

Once you arrive at the camp, they will serve you mint tea in the traditional way in the desert as a welcome. You’ll spend the night in a Berber Beduin tent.

After enjoying the views of the golden sand dunes, you will have a traditional dinner. Then, you will engage in the Berber party around the campfire listening to the desert drums. Finally, you can get to your private tent under the stars.

Desert camp and camel trekking - If you like bonding with your crew over camel rides, campfires, drum circles, dune boarding, and potentially the best vegetable soup ever, you've found your place. Youssef was very easy to work with when it came to panning our activities, and every staff member he interacted with treated us as if we were much more important than we really are. The tents themselves were so clean, comfortable and much nicer than anything I expected in a desert. Hot showers I said whaaat?! I would absolutely recommend staying here. Thank you youssef for making our stay wonderful
