Itinerary and highlights

After picking you up from your hotel first thing in the morning, we'll leave behind "civilization" to enter the desert of Merzouga.

The day begins by visiting the nomadic people who usually move from one place to another in the Erg Chebbi dune area. While we have tea with them we will get to know some of their traditions, customs and ways of life.

We will continue the route in the direction of Khamila: a town located in the vicinity of the dunes. In this town of ancestral population we will also discover its typical Gnaoua dances and its traditional music.

After our visit to Khamila, we will return to your hotel.
