    Dessert expérience overnight from Merzouga

    Our desert experience was amazing. Hassan and Moha Being nomads they were able to share their life experiences and play the Berber music. They were responsive right from our enquiries and after we booked. The moment we arrived they welcomed us into their home and greeted us with Moroccan mint tea, nibbles and Moroccan history. We loved our sunset camel ride. The dinner after was amazing. Fantastic soup, olives, bread with chicken and vegetable tagine. It was not dry but flavoursome and moist. Followed by grapes and orange slices sprinkled with cinnamon. They even supplied lots of water which some camps don’t. We had the option and we decided to sleep under the stars. It was magic. In the morning we did the camel sunrise and this was followed by another amazing food feast- breakfast. The flaky Moroccan bread with jams, eggs, yogurt, muffins and the Moroccan mint tea and coffee. I don’t think that you could get a better company to go with. We Definitely would recommend.

    Best 18 days with Said in Morocco

    We were party of 9 traveling with Said for 18 days. I have never come across a most wonderful, honest guide ever. He was so caring as we were all in our 70’s. Every step of the way, he was there to answer all our questions and was so proud to show us his country. Thank you Said and all See Around Morocco team . U made our trip most memorable and looking after us so well.

    unique experience in the desert

    We had a wonderful time in the desert. It was truly impressive and unforgettable. We spent two nights there and went quat and camel riding. We saw breathtaking sunrises and sunsets, watched the stars, made music with traditional Berber instruments, and sang together. We also met incredibly kind and welcoming people. Moha and Houssaïn were such warm-hearted hosts. They shared a lot about their family history and answered every question we had. They made us feel very welcome and at home from the very beginning. We were 12 people (maximum) at the camp, which made it feel very intimate and family-like. In contrast, we also saw groups of 30 to 50 people. We are very, very happy with our choice and that we were given such an unforgettable stay.

    Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Merzouga.

    How much does Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert cost?

    +

    Prices start at $74 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 Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert take?

    +

    Plan for about 20 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 Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 90 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 91 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Merzouga, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert?

    +

    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 Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 20-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert?

    +

    Around 32 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 20-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert 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.

    What is included in Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert?

    +

    Included: water in the camp; Sandboarding; Private tent with shared bathroom; Camel Ride (Camel per person); and Sunset and Sunrise by camels. Not included: Alcoholic beverages; Soft Drinks; and Tips :). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 12 listed pickup locations in and around Merzouga.

    What languages is Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert offered in?

    +

    Is Overnight Camel Trek in Merzouga Desert wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
