Total Immersion in the Sahara: The Merzouga Desert in 3 Days
If you are looking for a deep and relaxing desert experience, this 3-day route from Errachidia is your best option. Not only will you see the dunes, but you will also experience the Sahara. You will have time to share tea with nomadic families, discover the history of the ancient caravans in Rissani, and vibrate to the music of Gnawa in Khamlia. With two nights under the starry desert sky, this tour is an invitation to disconnect from the world and connect with the essence of Morocco.
3 day Tour from Errachidia to the Merzouga Desert
Pickup from your accommodation in Errachidia. We begin our journey toward Rissani, making several stops to enjoy panoramic views of the Ziz Valley palm groves. We pass through Erfoud to reach the village. After a short rest, we will set off on a camel trek to witness the sunset over the dunes. Upon arrival at the camp, we will settle in and enjoy dinner in traditional tents (jaimas), accompanied by Berber music under the starlit sky.
After breakfast, we set out on a desert excursion following the original “Paris-Dakar Rally” route. We will visit desert nomads to share tea with a local family and see the oasis where films like *Sahara* (starring Penélope Cruz) were filmed. We will also visit Khamlia, known as the “village of the blacks,” a community settled by people originally brought from Sudan. After lunch, our next adventure begins: a camel safari into the heart of the dunes to witness the sunset. Tonight will be special; we sleep in typical Berber tents and enjoy dinner to the sound of drums under a starry sky. Dinner and overnight stay.
We depart for Rissani to visit the market and the mausoleum of the founder of the Alaouite dynasty. We then continue to Erfoud to visit a fossil exhibition. Heading west, we cross the Jorf palm grove and Tinjdad before reaching Goulmima and its beautiful valley. We will make stops to enjoy the panoramic views before arriving back in Errachidia.

Solo teníamos un fin de semana y este tour fue perfecto. Dormir en el desierto es algo que hay que hacer una vez en la vida. El guía fue súper amable y el 4x4 muy cómodo.
