Camel trekking

Merzouga Camel Trekking at Sunset

The classic way to reach a desert camp: by camel, across the dunes of Erg Chebbi, arriving as the light turns orange. Here is how a typical overnight trek unfolds.

Local People, Real Nights in the Dunes

Guests on the carpets under the palms, evenings around the fire with drums, the tent rooms and the camp at sunset: these photos are moments from our own nights in the desert.

Being based in Merzouga means we can answer practical questions properly — where to park, what to pack, which camp suits a family or a couple — and adjust plans when something changes.

Questions Travellers Ask

What is included in a Merzouga desert camp?

Most overnight stays in a Merzouga desert camp include the night in a tent, dinner and breakfast, and a way of reaching the camp - by camel, by 4x4, or a mix of both. Many camps also offer music around the fire in the evening. Exactly what is included depends on the camp you choose, so every camp listing shows its inclusions, and we confirm them in writing before you book.

How much does a Merzouga desert camp cost?

It depends mainly on the camp category (authentic, comfort or luxury), whether you want a private bathroom, how you reach the camp, the season and the size of your group. See the camp price comparison or read our guide How Much Does a Merzouga Desert Camp Cost?. Send us your dates and we will reply with the current price for the camps that fit.

Is camel trekking included?

In many Merzouga camps a camel ride to the camp is part of the package, but not always - some guests prefer to arrive by 4x4, and some camps include both options. Each camp page shows whether camel trekking is included, and you can tick it as a must-have in the camp finder.

Do the tents have private bathrooms?

It depends on the camp. Luxury camps usually have a private bathroom inside each tent, comfort camps vary, and authentic camps more often use shared facilities. If a private bathroom matters to you, choose it in the camp finder or mention it in your request and we will only suggest camps that have one.

Can I book one night only?

Yes. One night is the most common stay: you arrive in the late afternoon, watch the sunset over the dunes, spend the night at the camp and leave after sunrise and breakfast. If you have more time, ask us about staying two nights.

What is the difference between authentic, comfort and luxury camps?

Authentic camps focus on a simple, traditional Sahara night at a lower price. Comfort camps add better beds, more privacy and better facilities. Luxury camps offer spacious private tents, usually with a private bathroom, and a higher level of service. Compare them in our guide Luxury vs Budget Desert Camp in Merzouga.
