Lovely experience - This trip was a lovely experience to get familiar with Sachara desert beautiful ecosystem, local people and culture. We've visited different parts of the desert, gorgeous sand dunes, places with fossils and excavation of minerals, the Beduins nomad camp where we ate delicious local food and drank tea. We've also seen how the gardens are grown in the desert, which is quite amazing. African music and food at the local restaurant were also great. Our guide Said was very welcoming and knowledgible. It was a wonderful day.

Great experience in Merzouga - We had a great time with our guide Salem.
Salem picked us up from our hotel for a very complete excursion: visit to the desert, a nomadic camp, a music school and lunch of a Berber pizza.
We highly recommend!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - We didn't have much time and decided to hire a 4x4 tour of Merzouga and its dunes. We took a lovely boy named Moha who speaks Spanish and we saw with him what we would not have discovered alone in a week. Plus food included in a very good Berber restaurant.
It has been very easy for me to make this review.
Highly recommended.
