Domande frequenti

Is this tour suitable for families with children?

Yes, this 5-day desert tour is suitable for families with children aged 6 and above. The extended itinerary allows for a more relaxed pace with comfortable accommodations and varied activities that appeal to all ages. Children particularly enjoy the camel rides, desert exploration, and visits to kasbahs. However, some desert activities like sandboarding may have age restrictions. Please inform us about children's ages when booking so we can ensure appropriate arrangements.

What should I pack for the extended desert stay?

For this 5-day tour with two nights in the desert: comfortable layered clothing for varying temperatures, sturdy walking shoes, sandals for camp, sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, camera with extra batteries, personal medications, and toiletries. Since you'll spend two nights in the desert camp, a small backpack for daily essentials is recommended. The desert nights can be cool even in summer, so warm layers are essential. Modest clothing is recommended for cultural visits.

What makes this 5-day tour special compared to shorter tours?

This 5-day tour offers a more comprehensive and relaxed exploration of southern Morocco with two full days in the Sahara Desert. Unlike shorter tours, you'll experience: extended time at Erg Chegaga with additional activities like sandboarding and nomadic family visits, more comfortable pacing with less daily travel, opportunity for deeper cultural immersion, and a full day dedicated to desert exploration without rushing. The extra day allows for a more authentic desert experience and better photography opportunities.

What are the desert camp facilities like for two nights?

The traditional desert camp at Erg Chegaga offers comfortable private tents with proper bedding, shared bathroom facilities with basic amenities, dining area, and common spaces.
