Choose a private 1-night or 2-night Merzouga desert tour in the Erg Chebbi dunes. Each package combines real Sahara activities with a private camp stay, and you can arrive in your own car or add private transport from Marrakech, Fes, Errachidia Airport or another city.
A Merzouga desert tour is more than booking a tent for the night. It combines the Erg Chebbi dunes with guided activities such as camel trekking, 4x4 desert exploration and quad biking. Our 1-night Merzouga desert tour is a short 2-day experience, while the 2-night Merzouga desert tour adds a full discovery day around Merzouga, local culture and more activities.
Both packages start in Merzouga and can be booked as self-drive experiences. If you need transport, we also arrange private routes from Marrakech, Fes (Fez), Errachidia Airport or another city in Morocco.
The one-night option is designed for shorter trips. The original two-night package remains the most complete way to discover Merzouga.
If your schedule allows it, the two-night package gives you a much deeper Merzouga experience.

My name is Youssef, and I have been living in Merzouga since 2006. I created this experience to show travelers more than just one night in the desert. Merzouga is my home, and I want guests to discover the dunes, people, food and traditions that make this place special.
Together with our local team, we personally organize the camp stay, activities and support throughout your experience, so you enjoy Merzouga with people who know it best.
The one-night package is best when time is tight. If you want to discover the desert beyond the camp, choose two nights because it includes the full 4x4 discovery day and more local experiences.
