Erg Chebbi

The golden sand dunes as far as the eyes can see. The gorgeous dunes and the camel ride to the camps is a must experience. It was amazing to see the sunset on the way to the camps. The dunes are beautiful and a we also saw an oasis on the way. A must visit to Sahara at-least once in a lifetime.

Breathtaking! So blessed we got to see this place with our own eyes, unbelievable beautiful. Also, I would highly recommend spending the night and enjoy the beauty of the desert by night.

Golden sand dunes stretch as far as the eyes can see, tall dunes are perfect to watch sunset and sunrise. The Milky Way stretches across the night skies. Best Moroccan dessert experience.

Most stunning desert landscape I've seen in Morocco. Worth the 9-hour ride from Rabat

Had a great time here riding camels and watching the sunset. Definitely a highlight of the trip!

Breathtaking sand dunes! It was really fun enjoying the sunset from this magical place! The only thing I’d recommend is going there on your own without a booked tour to have enough time to enjoy! Just to make it clear: from most places in the dunes you will be able to see a city or road in the distance and therefore it might not exactly look like most of the photos where you only see sand!

It was such a great/ unforgettable experience to walk on the enormous desert! It had long been my dream to get there and it came true. The sand was so smooth and it trickled down my hands. If you wanna see an unbelievable view like a movie and have amazing experience, I’d definitely recommend it!

One of the most magical places to visit on this planet. Views are incredible. We visited at the end of May hitching a camel ride at 6:30pm. The weather was perfect on the day; about 30 degrees with a nice breeze. The camel ride was unforgettable. Stopping to take in everything. The sunset is amazing. Sunrise facing the Algerian border is also breathtaking. Our return journey was by 4x4 up and down the dunes which was enjoyable. Merzouga is the main town where groups set off from. Camel ride takes about 90 minutes and 4x4 25 minutes! Camps are just on the edge of the sandy parts of the desert. Temperatures can drop and it can also get windy at night. In case you hear the tents flapping don’t be alarmed. The night sky on a clear day is amazing. Star constellation and shooting stars. And the moon rising through the desert is incredible. You can get here through tours or you can book accommodation directly then pay separately for transportation to the desert. Expect minimum transportation costs of €45 per person. Luxury camps are for glampers! We drove to Merzouga from the north (Tangier). Be careful of police who have the habit of attempting to fine you for nothing. Especially between Midelt and Errachidia, there is one stop full of corrupt policemen. They tried to fine us 3 times but were unsuccessful. Observe the speed limit, when you see police stop signs, stop before the sign, display car papers on the dashboard next to driver, wear seats belts at all times, if possible use dashcams. The roads are generally fantastic. Other drivers may flash to let you know that the police are ahead. Sometimes they hide with speed guns. That said security is also good due to police presence!
