Your journey continues with a breathtaking panoramic view over the Dades Valley an unforgettable moment where dozens of ancient kasbahs spill across the landscape like something out of a storybook.

 Towering cliffs rise dramatically on either side, their textured rock faces a paradise for climbers and adventurers alike. Here, life unfolds in traditional adobe villages, and the presence of the locals adds a soulful touch to the raw natural beauty. After a refreshing walk through the gorge and a relaxing lunch stop in either Tinejdad or Touroug, the real magic begins as we set our sights on Merzouga. 

As the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi rise before you like waves in a silent sea, it’s time to climb aboard your camel for a one hour trek through the soft sands just in time to catch the sun sinking below the horizon in a fiery desert farewell.

Wake up call in the Sahara means one thing a magical “date with the sunrise.” As the first light of day brushes across the endless dunes, you’ll climb a nearby sand hill to witness what might just be the most breathtaking sunrise of your life. After this soul stirring moment, you’ll ride your camel back to Merzouga, where a hearty and delicious breakfast awaits to refuel your energy. 

From here, the final leg of your journey begins, crossing the vast and arid pre desert landscapes, where the hardy acacia trees dot the horizon like desert sentinels.
