Description

Camel rides, sandboarding, and an overnight stay at a standard camp come together to create a uniquely immersive desert experience that blends adventure with tradition. Riding a camel offers a slow, rhythmic journey across the الرمال, echoing how travelers have crossed deserts for centuries, while sandboarding adds a burst of excitement as you glide down golden dunes, combining the thrill of sport with stunning landscapes. As the sun sets, the experience shifts into a peaceful overnight at a standard camp, where the simplicity of the setup allows you to fully connect with nature—enjoying a warm meal, gathering around a campfire, and sleeping under a sky filled with stars. Together, these elements balance adrenaline and tranquility, making the desert feel both exhilarating and deeply serene.

Beautiful desert camp

We stayed for two nights in the camp. It was a very special experience and would definitely do it again. Especially the camel ride and the milkyway at night were unforgettable. Everything was paid by cash in advance. The price for the camp was cheap but the additional coast for transfer are high. This was not visible on Booking. Nevertheless this was a very unique experience.

Unforgettable experience

Nice experience! Welcoming and smiling staff! Room and clean place. Proper food for a camp in the desert! 4x4 activity in Jeep super fun with our guide Mohamed! A real happiness to make camel! On the other hand, camels are attached by the knee which does not seem optimal for the welfare of the animal! However, for the rest they treat camels well!

Recommended Sahara Desert Adventure!

We had a wonderful trip to the desert camp, interesting and intriguing and without difficulties in travel. We booked a four day adventure and had a very nice guide, Ibrahim, who was pleasant and friendly and always happy to show us new places and help address our needs. (He proactively curated restaurants, shopping, and good experiences…and clean bathrooms!) We also appreciate the efforts of Youssef who helped arrange the trip and made our celebration extra special for our 25th wedding anniversary. We highly recommend Youssef, Ibrahim, and this adventure.

Very memorable trip to the Sahara!

We spent two nights in the desert and had a great life experience. Everything went very well, communication with the guide was smooth and the people in the camp were friendly. It's just that January nights can be cold, so make sure you bring enough clothes for the night. We will definitely come back again in the future!

Absolutely amazing, safe, fun, clean, must visit!!

Stayed with friends for 2 nights, did all the excursions we could and it was amazing. 10/10 funny hospitality. Both Daouds were amazing funny, insightful and helped us a lot, along with Hassan and Ahmed. Do the 2 hour quad ride to the oasis!! Amazing sunsets and the clearest milky way night skies as well. Aziz forever!!!

Excellent! Would do it again!

This place is unbelievable. Great service. Greta adventures. There is camel riding morning and night, options to see sunset and sunrise, 4x4 ATV rides, a car ride to see a group that played music, a car ride to nomadic groups in desert, a trip to a beautiful oasis. The food was excellent and there’s plenty of it. Some water is complimentary or $1 for a massive bottle. Great running water, hot water too. Berber music around the fire. BONUS: take a big blanket from your room and walk out into the Sahara late at night with a pillow and watch the stars! Both David’s are excellent! And the price is excellent!

An unforgettable experience – highly recommended!

The two nights at the luxury camp and the camel trekking in the Merzouga desert were fantastic. The camp is beautiful, the food super delicious and the staff incredibly warm. We also booked a quad bike ride and a jeep tour – it’s definitely worth it, both in terms of price and experience, because otherwise you can’t Enterprise in the desert. And very importantly: Be sure to book two nights! One night is far too short to really enjoy the atmosphere, tranquility and beauty of the desert. A highlight of our trip – we would do it again immediately! 🌵✨
