Great.
A great experience, from the reception with Ahmed, who tells us about his love of his country, and 1 hour of dromedary under the sun with a friendly guide who made us the photos, after having a moment of relaxation in the dunes , a hearty and very good meal, served with a smile, and a Berber evening with participatory songs, a quiet night in a clean tent, and a breakfast at the top, what kindness I STRONGLY recommend, Thank you to the whole team!!!
Response from the operator: Bonjour Severine, Merci pour votre excellent commentaire sur votre séjour au Maroc et votre excursion dans le désert avec nous. Nous espérons vous revoir bientôt ! C’est un honneur pour nous de vous avoir accueilli ! Nous accueillons avec plaisir tous les voyageurs du monde entier ! Cordialement, Ahmed

Beautiful!
Upon arrival at the property the Welcoming is warm and friendly, bottles of water are provided before starting the tour and a pashmina is provided with which the turban is made to face the trip to the desert. You are transported by 4WD to the starting point and your suitcases are transported directly to the campsite. The trip by dromedary lasts about an hour and you are accompanied by the guide who also takes photos and videos. I recommend dressing comfortable with long pants and a long shirt to shelter from wind and sun. I recommend possibly a carrier or large pockets to put any phone or bottles of water. Once at the tent you are greeted with the typical tea ceremony and some snacks, you are then escorted to the room. The tent is very nice and cozy. Dinner was great and plentiful, activities (sandboarding) and music around the fire fun. The next day you can admire the sunrise from the dunes and you can choose whether to return on the back of a dromedary or by car. Thank you for this great experience!
Response from the operator: Hello Riccardo, Thank you for your beautiful review about your visit to Morocco and your visit into the desert with us and we hope to see you next time! It's an honor for us to host you! We welcome every traveler from all around the world! Best regards Ahmed

Absolutely fantastic trip, beautiful accommodation and very friendly guides
You wont be disappointed. Ahmed and his team offer a very warm welcome and honestly, nothing is too much trouble. When we arrived in Merzouga (we hired a car for 3 days and drove from Marrakesh where we were staying at the Riu Tikida Palmeraie) at the meeting point which is the Dar Morocco Hotel we were met by Ahmed who explained the schedule for the trip. We were then taken into the Hotel Reception and given drinks and snacks. We had booked to do the camel ride into the desert but I had decided before we arrived that I didnt feel confident doing it and therefore, just my Husband did the camel trek and I headed to the camp via 4WD driven by Ahmed's Brother (didnt get his name unfortunately but, he was really friendly). Along the way we stopped at another hotel to pick up other guests who were joining the overnight camp. On arrival at camp we were given drinks, cold bottled water and a variety of snacks and were shown around our accommodation. Wow !! - incredible tent right in heart of the desert. Comfortable, clean with private shower and toilet. My Husband arrived approx 40 minutes after me. He absolutely loved the camel ride and would 100% recommend it. As evening approached, we sat and watched the sun go down and had a walk up the dunes before sitting down to evening meal. The meal was fantastic... chicken and lemon tagine, rice, salad, bread, eggplant tagine. Beautiful food and lots of it. Too much for us to finish and afterwards they brought out fresh melon and grapes. After the meal we sat round the fire and the team provided a great evening of entertainment... playing music, showing us how to play the instruments and getting everyone involved in having a go. Dancing around the fire and relaxing under the stars. We woke early to walk up the sand dunes to watch the sunrise. Truly beautiful and a moment I will never forget. You are welcome to stay in the desert as long as you like but we opted to head back to the Hotel to collect our car at about 9.30 am as we had a long drive back to Marrakesh. You will not be disappointed if you book this trip. Like I said, they cannot do enough for you to make you feel comfortable and ensure an enjoyable trip. These guys put 100% effort into making your visit all you hoped for. We did have someone in our group who was moaning about the fact it was a bit cloudy and they couldn't see the stars as clear as they had hoped but come on.... anyone with common sense will know, no one can control the weather but this person seemed to be making a big issue out of it and in fact, she didnt come out of her tent for food or to join in the music etc. I guess you just cant please everyone !!! Thank you Ahmed and team. We will definitely visit again on our next visit to Morocco xx

Professional and attention to detail!
What a great experience, right from the start! Ahmed was super responsive with every question I had. We made it a quick trip and this team helped make it happen (for our honeymoon). From making suggestions for flights to helping with ground trans to making one of the most flavorful meals we’ve ever had. It was all done with attention to detail and great consideration. The camp was super clean and everyone was so kind. Would definitely do again if given the opportunity.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Camel Ride With Luxury Desert Camp And Night In Merzouga Dunes: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Merzouga.
How much does Camel Ride With Luxury Desert Camp And Night In Merzouga Dunes cost?
+
Prices start at $97 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Merzouga usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Camel Ride With Luxury Desert Camp And Night In Merzouga Dunes take?
+
Plan for about 18 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Merzouga is not rushed.
Is Camel Ride With Luxury Desert Camp And Night In Merzouga Dunes worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 15 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Merzouga, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Camel Ride With Luxury Desert Camp And Night In Merzouga Dunes?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Camel Ride With Luxury Desert Camp And Night In Merzouga Dunes suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 18-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Camel Ride With Luxury Desert Camp And Night In Merzouga Dunes?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Merzouga can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Merzouga and add a light layer if any part of the 18-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Camel Ride With Luxury Desert Camp And Night In Merzouga Dunes start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Merzouga within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Merzouga?
+
On Outty we rank every Merzouga experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include From Merzouga: 2-Nights In Luxury Camp with Camel Trek & Dinner., Overnight in a Luxury Merzouga Desert Camp – Camel Ride & Meals, Camel Trekking & 1 Night in Merzouga Desert Camp. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Merzouga?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Merzouga?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
