Our tours are operated by local travel guides. The majority of our staff is from M’hamid El Ghizlane and many of us hail from nomadic families from the Sahara desert. No one knows the desert better than we do as it is our home. We would be honoured to welcome you to our home and help you discover the mystery and magic of the Sahara and all there is to see and experience on the way.
We are flexible with pickup and are happy to meet at your desired pickup location.
See a sacred oasis and spend the night in an Erg Chigaga desert camp. Your Sahara desert adventure to Erg Chegaga begins at our Morocco desert camp just outside the village of M'Hamid El Ghizlane. You can either arrive in the morning or stay in our basecamp the night before (free delicious breakfast included). We will greet you with tea, as is our custom, and discuss the journey ahead to make sure you have everything you need for your Erg Chigaga excursion. We will pack our 4x4 Jeep with water, snacks, and luggage and embark on our Erg Chigaga excursion. Following the path of the Wad Latash river, it won't take long to find yourself immersed in a multitude of diverse desert landscapes. You will see tamarisk trees (mentioned in ancient texts, including the Bible), vast plains of stones, and herds of wild camels. Along the way, we will visit a sacred oasis where Sahara nomads met in times of celebration.
Journey back from Erg Chegaga to M'Hamid El Ghizlane. The second day of your Erg Chigaga excursion is dedicated to returning to M'hamid. In the morning, you are free to get up early to watch an amazing desert sunrise. After enjoying a delicious breakfast in the Erg Chigaga desert camp, you will have some free time to walk in the dunes. We will load our 4x4 jeep, and journey back to the village of M'Hamid El Ghizlane, arriving at ~10 am. Here ends your Erg Chigaga Excursion.
