We're a Berber family from south east Morocco and our history lies in the desert where we lived as nomads for many years. Our business is at the heart of our ambition; bringing you memorable experiences and Berber culture. Morocco and The Sahara have always been places of wonder for travellers so we started our company, offered work to nomadic children and gave them opportunities to study and become guides. We continue to support many families who live in the remote desert and other nomad children who weren't given the chance for a school education. We also provide jobs at the camp we built in 2017. Our team is key to delivering magical experiences by sharing music, stories and the history of Berber culture and nomadic life beyond that of any textbook or travel guide. We offer a warm and heartfelt welcome to visitors from around the globe. Let's plan your trip!
