Memorable desert journey

Traveling through the Sahara on camelback was a unique adventure for our group. The local guide was attentive and provided useful insights about the desert while leading us through impressive dunes. The ride itself was steady, allowing us to appreciate the vastness without any hurry. Our first impression was somewhat reserved but the unfolding scenery and group energy made it truly enjoyable by the end.

Balade sur les dunes d’Erg Chebbi

Cette excursion à dos de chameau offre une immersion unique dans les vastes paysages du Sahara marocain. Accompagné d’un guide local, j’ai parcouru les grandes dunes d’Erg Chebbi en fin d’après-midi, un moment où la lumière met en valeur les reliefs. L’expérience reste l’un des aspects les plus marquants de mon séjour à Merzouga.

Would do it again

The camel ride was well organized with clear instructions from the guide. The route over the dunes allowed for good views and didn’t feel rushed.

Good choice

The camel ride across the dunes of Erg Chebbi was a straightforward way to see the Sahara’s vastness. Our local guide provided clear instructions, which helped once we got used to the rhythm of riding. It took a few minutes to find the groove, but the views made it worthwhile.

Expérience authentique au Sahara

Au début, je n'étais pas très sûr de l'expérience, mais la balade à dos de chameau à travers les dunes d'Erg Chebbi s'est révélée bon. Le guide local était attentif, ce qui a rendu la découverte plus accessible et intéressante.
