A superb experience - We had a great excursion, very authentic. A special thank you to our driver guide who was great! We recommend that you participate. The visit of the pottery, the rough road by car then 4x4 until discovering the erg with dunes as far as the eye can see, it was great! The sunset over the dune was fantastic, the friendliness of the camp leader, the food, the calm, the stargazing, everything was great. Another big thank you to them!

Unique Sahara Desert Experience - We booked a Sahara excursion and had a fantastic experience from start to finish.
Pickup and transfer were well organized and comfortable. The drive into the desert already gave us a sense of adventure.
The camel ride into the dunes at sunset was unforgettable — the colors, the silence, and the vastness of the desert made it a once-in-a-lifetime moment.
The desert camp was clean and cozy. Our tent had comfortable beds, and the atmosphere felt authentic without losing comfort. Dinner and breakfast were tasty, with plenty of variety and local touches.
The highlight was waking up early to watch the sunrise over the dunes — truly magical.
This was a perfect way to share time with my dad and experience the desert. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and memorable adventure.

Magic night - Hussein was our guide and driver during the journey to the Erg Chigaga desert. We left from Zagora and stopped at a ceramic cooperative, after teaching us the manufacturing process and some purchase we continued along the road to a point where we left and continued through the countryside where we could see wild animals. In total the trip takes more than 3 hours but really worth it. Once we arrived at the camp they were waiting for us with a tea and then we went for a walk between the dunes with the camels and got on the big dune to watch the sunset. Once the sun went down we went back to the camp for dinner and then the cook, musician and caretaker of the Brahim camp together with Hussein sang us some typical songs of their land, they also let us join in lending us their instruments. Once the show was over we went to sleep and woke up to watch the sunrise, then Hussein brought us back and about 11 we were already in Zagora. The camp has bathroom and showers and the tents and beds are very comfortable. Certainly a recommendable experience and more with these nice people. The camp has plugs and wifi.

Magic - A unique experience accompanied by qualified people! We loved the people at the camp especially our guide Hocine. We only have one disappointment: not staying longer (1 night / 2 days ) We are sure we will repeat the experience with 2 nights this time. A magical moment 🥰

Experience great, time too short - Basically great tour with nice welcome and friendly guide. The drive to the camp in Erg Chegaga through the stone desert was very long (about 4h) with some photo stops, on the way back through the mountains it was about 3h. We therefore did not have much time in the sandy desert (arrival half an hour before sunset, departure at 8am directly after breakfast). Would have liked a little more time to walk over the sand mountains. Still a great experience!
