Tour description

This journey across the Moroccan Sahara combines camel trekking, 4×4 jeep exploration, and overnight stays in private desert camps among the dunes. The route leads through golden ergs, vast regs, and rocky hamadas, offering unforgettable silence, endless horizons, and magical evenings under a sky full of stars — all seasoned with the rich flavors of traditional Moroccan cuisine.

What you’ll see during the trip

Visit historic sites in the remote desert

Visit historic sites hidden deep in the remote desert, where ancient ruins whisper stories of lost civilizations and the timeless sands guard the secrets of the past.

Slow-Cooked Tagines Over an Open Fire

Savor traditional Moroccan tagines simmered slowly over open flames — tender meat, sweet vegetables, and rich spices creating flavors only the desert can offer.

Scenic jeep routes through rocky plateaus

Experience the raw beauty of the desert as your jeep winds across vast rocky plateaus shimmering under the sun. Endless horizons, rugged terrain, and silence broken only by the wind create a feeling of pure freedom. Each turn reveals a new panorama — wild, untouched, and breathtakingly real.

Savor the sunset in the wilderness

Savor the sunset in the wilderness as the sky ignites with shades of gold and crimson, and the desert falls silent under the first stars of night.

Saharan Bread Baked in Hot Sand

Taste the most authentic bread of your life — kneaded by hand and baked directly in the hot desert sand. Its smoky aroma and crispy crust tell the story of centuries-old desert traditions.

Sacred Oasis Visit

Discover the peaceful Sacred Oasis — a hidden gem in the middle of the desert, where natural springs bring life to palms and acacia trees. It’s a perfect place to rest, drink tea, and feel the timeless calm of the Sahara.

Activities during the trip

Walk across the dunes

Walking on the dunes at sunrise or sunset is pure freedom — the colors, the silence, and the endless horizon will stay in your memory forever.

Tea with Nomad Family

Share tea and stories with a local nomadic family who still live deep in the desert. Discover their way of life, traditions, and hospitality — a truly authentic Moroccan experience filled with warmth and human connection.

Sandboarding

Experience the thrill of gliding down soft dunes on a sandboard! It’s pure fun and adventure — laughter, adrenaline, and the perfect way to enjoy the playful side of the Sahara.

Desert wild camping experience

Spend the night under a million stars, surrounded by the silence of the Sahara. Feel the magic of the desert as you fall asleep by the fire and wake up to the first light dancing on the dunes. It’s not just camping — it’s a moment of complete connection with nature.

Camel ride

Travel the way nomads have for centuries — gently swaying on camelback across golden sands. It’s the most authentic and peaceful way to explore the Sahara, perfect for photos and quiet reflection.

Where you’ll stay

Discover the places where you’ll unwind after a day full of adventure — from wild desert camps to luxurious stays under the stars.

Stationary Camp (Luxury)

The luxury camp at Erg Chigaga combines comfort with the wild beauty of the desert. Guests sleep in spacious tents with private bathrooms, hotel-quality bedding, and lanterns that create a warm atmosphere. A campfire dinner and the silence of the Sahara complete this experience of elegant simplicity.

Stationary Camp (Comfort)

The stationary camp at Erg Chigaga offers comfortable tents with real beds, warm blankets, and freshly prepared meals. The bathroom with a hot shower is located in a separate building and is shared with other guests. In the evening, the hosts gather around the campfire to play and sing traditional Saharan songs — the desert blues.

Wild Camp

Guides choose the best place to camp depending on the weather, wind direction, terrain, availability of firewood, and the position of the sun (shade). They also make sure there are no other camps nearby — so the desert experience remains intimate and undisturbed. The camp consists of a kitchen tent and participant tents — either large nomadic tents that can accommodate up to 4 people or classic smaller tents.

We hope to return one day and spend more days in this amazing environment with even more amazing people and food 🤍

Mariola, Poland

Being so close to the unearthly nature of the desert while enjoying the comfort of a camp simply represents the best of both worlds.

Paul, Netherlands

Our experience at Agata & Mohammed’s camp appeared to become the best experience we had in our entire trip to Morocco. I wish we stayed longer than just for one night.

Aleksei, Kazakhstan

This place is an absolute gem! The hospitality of the family that works here is beyond outstanding. They make you feel at home, and introduce you to an experience that is nothing short of magical.

Olivia, USA

Mohamed and Agata’s desert oasis was nothing short of visually spectacular, and completely comfortable. We had an experience that words cannot do justice, you’ll just have to see for yourself.

Erin, USA

As other reviews say, think no more – you’ve found your place to stay in the Sahara. The stay was surprisingly comfortable – a hot shower, wifi and comfortable beds were more than we expected.

Madara, Latvia

…Your desert story starts here! The most beautiful camp and also very comfortable with everything you need. Beautiful dunes where you can walk all day.

Pia, Germany

The place is magical, the catering on site is excellent! I had an excellent stay, my head still in the stars. The experience in the desert was exceptional.

Julie, France

A fabulous desert camp far enough away from the village to be isolated, yet accessible by a hire car. Great dinner and a lovely communal chill out area for day time.

Dave, UK

This place is just magic! Beautiful landscape, great food and very friendly, welcoming hosts :) it’s away from other dwellings, so quiet and peaceful. I could truly experience the desert.

Jacek, Poland

The whole site is beautifully presented and the room is clean and spacious. It is remarkable what has been achieved in desert surroundings. Both Agata and Moha are extremely kind and friendly.

Liz, UK

Beautiful camp with stunning sights. Agata, Mohamed and their staff were very friendly and welcoming. They cooked the best tajine we had on our whole trip.
