Day 1: the Route to Erg Chigaga

Meet your local driver at your accommodation in Mhamid or at the bus station. If you are renting a car, our driver will show you where to park until the end of the adventure. Your journey begins as soon as you step into our well-prepared vehicle, leaving the last village before heading off-road into the wildlife of the Sahara Desert. The landscape changes with every minute as you drive through the riverbed of Morocco's longest river, the Draa. After two hours of driving, you will stop for a tea break with a Nomad family, where you can experience their lifestyle, stories, culture, and traditions. Enjoy a beautiful walk around the sacred oasis of Oum Laalag, which was once a zoo and a vital source of life for many Nomadic families and their herds. By early evening, the massive golden sand dunes will appear on the horizon. Upon reaching your camp, you will be welcomed with tea. In the evening, enjoy a unique sunset during a camel ride through the dunes. Afterwards, the camels will bring you back to camp, where a campfire, Berber music, a delicious dinner, and a starry sky await you.

Day 2: Rejoing the last village of M'hamid

If you love sunrises, we recommend finding a high point near the camp to watch the glowing sand dunes as the warm light touches your face. After breakfast, the journey will continue along a different path, slowly bringing you back to Mhamid village. Our driver will return you to your car or the bus station by midday. For any further requests or suggestions, feel free to contact us in advance.
