Route Map

Day 1

Zagora to Mhamid

Our adventure begins in Zagora, heading towards M'Hamid and crossing the Tizi Anagame pass and Ben Selman mountain. Along the way, we’ll explore landscapes filled with river stones and sand dunes, making stops at hidden oases. Just before sunset, we’ll arrive at Erg Chigaga, home to the highest dunes in the region.

Here, you’ll witness a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle: the sand turns a deep red, perfectly harmonizing with the sky during sunset. As night falls, we’ll return to our desert camp for an unforgettable evening with dinner, Berber music, and the warm glow of a bonfire.

Day 2

Erg Chigaga Exploration

Today, the desert is our home. We’ll start with an awe-inspiring sunrise from the tops of the dunes, where the colors of the sky and sun merge with the sand.

Next, we’ll embark on a camel trek through the Erg Chigaga dunes. After two hours, we'll reach the Tamares tree, where our guide will prepare a traditional nomadic lunch: kebabs and freshly baked bread. Following lunch, we'll spend the rest of the day exploring the surroundings and enjoying another stunning sunset before returning to our camp for a magical night of dinner, music, and camaraderie.

This full-day Sahara excursion can be done by camel and 4x4 or just 4x4.

Day 3

Erg Chigaga to Zagora

We’ll greet the new day with another magical sunrise before departing Chigaga and heading back to Zagora. Along the way, we’ll make one last stop at Tamegroute to visit the ancient Quranic library, a cultural treasure of immense value.

Our tour concludes in Zagora at midday, bringing you back to civilization with a heart full of unforgettable memories.
