Erg Chebbi Luxury Desert Camp by Merzouga

 

Welcome to Our Erg Chebbi Luxury Camp…

Located near Merzouga, a Saharan town known as the gateway to Erg Chebbi and a short distance from the border with Algeria, this spectacular landscape is home to our Erg Chebbi tours.

Famous for their striking colors and towering peaks, the dunes at Erg Chebbi are the most popular in all of Morocco. One local legend claims that God sent these enormous desert dunes as punishment for turning away an exhausted traveler.

Whichever version of events you believe, one thing is for sure — the Erg Chebbi dunes offer an incredible setting for Sahara Desert camping in Morocco. These awe-inspiring formations reach heights of 150 meters, lengths of 22 kilometers, and widths of 5 kilometers, leaving an impression that lasts long after our Erg Chebbi tours end!

Our Erg Chebbi luxury camp is nestled in dunes named Zniqui. This location offers complete seclusion, set apart from other desert camps, and serves as a prime starting point for Erg Chebbi tours.
