Experiences

Things to do in the Merzouga desert

Some of it comes with your stay. The rest we arrange for you, on the morning or evening that suits you best.

Included

Comes with every stay

No extra charge, no upselling around the fire.

Ride out into Erg Chebbi with a camel handler from Merzouga and watch the light drop behind the dunes.

Boards are free for guests. Walk up the dune behind camp and ride back down as many times as your legs allow.

No light pollution, no noise. On a clear moonless night the Milky Way is visible from the sand outside your tent.

Optional

Tell us in your enquiry, or simply ask when you arrive. We work with local guides and drivers we know personally.

Automatic quad bikes with a lead guide, from a one-hour dune loop to a full day out towards the Algerian border.

Two-seat dune buggies for guests who want the desert with a little more adrenaline and a roll cage.

A traditional massage in camp after a day on the dunes, arranged with a local therapist.

A half or full day by Land Cruiser to Khamlia, the Gnawa musicians, the nomad families and the Mfis mines.

A private desert celebration — dinner, decor, music and photography arranged around your moment.

A traditional desert wellness experience using the naturally heated sand of Erg Chebbi, available in summer.
