3 Day Group Tour From Marrakech To Sahara Desert
Overview
This is the easiest way to spend a real night in the Sahara. Instead of a long drive from Marrakech, you start right at the edge of the Erg Chebbi dunes in Merzouga, so all your time is spent in the desert itself.
Ride a camel across the golden sand at sunset, then spend the evening at a desert camp with a traditional dinner, Berber music around the fire, and a sky full of stars. In the morning, watch the sunrise over the dunes before riding back to Merzouga.
You can choose between two camps: a Standard Camp with traditional Berber tents and shared bathrooms, ideal for budget travelers, or a Luxury Camp with spacious private tents and en-suite bathrooms for extra comfort.
