Pickup details:

M'Hamid is the last village before the Sahara. It can be reached from different airports. You then have several options for finding us. The bus is the most economical and simplest form of transport. During the trips stops are planned to eat or have tea but it will not allow you to stop where you want, for that you will need to take a private means of transport (taxi, 4x4), which we can organize.
