Tour Plan:

Merzouga Camel Trekking for 1 to 2 Nights

The most requested desert trip options that we get are the 1-day camel trekking trip and 2-days camel trekking trip. However, we are recommending 2 days for camel trekking which gives you the opportunity to explore surrounding areas as well.

All in all, during these trips, you get to ride camels and watch the mesmerizing scenery of the Sahara along with unforgettable sunset and sunrise.  Also, evenings are great for stargazing because Sahara offers you an amazing experience of clear sky with milky ways.

Moreover, our 2 days trips are filled with more activities.  After breakfast, you will get the chance to explore the desert further.  You’ll go on a trip to see the nearby fossils and see the desert lake, which is sometimes occupied by flamingos.  Furthermore, we will be visiting semi-nomadic families and driving further in the dunes toward the Algerian border.

Lastly, if you are spending 2 nights in the desert you can choose to stay a second night in a bit more modern accommodations.  At the desert riad, you can enjoy the pool along with a relaxing atmosphere.  Also, if you prefer more lively surroundings you could hit the town of Merzouga for some lively spots.

3 – Night-Sunset-Sunrise Merzouga Camel Trekking

Not to mention, if you like to add 3rd night to a camel ride in Merzouga adventure you can dig into much deeper Moroccan local tribe culture and visit nearby desert towns as well.

In brief, you will visit Khamlia village which is a town known for spiritual Gnawa musicians.  For sure, many of our guests really enjoy these unique desert rhythms.  Another great cultural experience can be explored in the ancient town of Rissani. Especially, many of our guests enjoy visiting traditional souks in town.

All in all, the unique Sahara with its unusual environment and local tribes will not disappoint you. It rathe fills your soul and changes you forever.

An Outstanding Cultural Tour I just completed a multiday tour with Hassan from Best Morocco Travel as my guide. Safely driving his comfortable vehicle while playing wonderful Moroccan music on his sound system, Hassan took me to many memorable destinations. He knows his country. He’s a bright young man with plenty of energy. His English language skills are impressive. If you’re fortunate to have Hassan as your guide, he will take great care of you. Hassan is THE guide to have when visiting Morocco. I recommend him without hesitation.

Enjoyable trip The week in Morocco was very interesting and special. We not only enjoyed the local scenery, but also the considerate service. Hassan arranged the accommodation for us with local characteristics, and provided us with small gifts and local delicacies during the trip. All our requirements were well met by him and it was a very memorable and enjoyable trip.

Good memories 我参加了七天的摩洛哥之旅,想要提醒的是 要是想更深度游玩摩洛哥可以再久一点,可以八到十天,因为景点很分散,坐车的时常比较久。卡萨和马拉喀什值得好好玩,当然撒哈拉沙漠很壮观,很特别。导游Hassan是很贴心很友好的人,推荐给大家!而且可以根据大家的喜好进行调整行程,还有接机送机时的小礼物都让我感觉很幸福。It is hard to score the trip, because we and guide are not only like the business, We are like friends, like having fun with a Morocco local friend who will help you arrange all things well. And the accommodations he booked for us are nice. Also eating the traditional food of Morocco. Highly recommended!Thank you for taking me to see Morocco.
