2 Nights Camel Trekking Merzouga

Tour Details

This 2 Nights Camel Trekking adventure in Merzouga is the best option to truly feel the magic of Erg Chebbi and combine several desert experiences in one trip. You trek deeper into the Sahara than a single overnight allows, sleeping two nights in desert camps, meeting nomad families and enjoying sunrises and sunsets far from the crowds.

Over two full days of walking and riding, the dunes reveal their many faces — golden at dawn, deep orange at dusk, and silver under the moon. Each camp is set in a different corner of the erg, so every evening brings a new horizon, and there is real time to slow down, disconnect and live at the gentle rhythm of the desert.

The 2 Nights Camel Trekking route is private and fully guided by experienced Berber cameleers, with standard or luxury camps and a pace tailored to your group. It runs year-round; spring and autumn are ideal, while winter offers crisp days and star-filled nights.

How much walking and riding is involved each day?

You alternate between riding the camel and walking, with several hours of gentle progress each day broken by long lunch and rest stops.

Do I need to be very fit?

Where do we sleep and wash?

In comfortable Berber camps with beds and blankets. Standard camps have shared washing facilities; luxury camps offer private en-suite tents.

Are all meals included?
