Itinerary:

A fabulous view of the sun rising over the desert dunes is one of the memories you will cherish from your Morocco tour. Our Merzouga sunrise camel ride starts early in the morning. We will meet you at our hotel or in front of your riad or hotel in the desert at least one hour before sunrise.

Depending on the timing of the sunrise and our appointment, we will depart for a thrilling desert camel ride over the orange sand dunes of Erg Chebbi. Upon arrival at the place where we usually leave the camels, we will walk approximately 80 meters to reach the highest dune of Erg Chebbi.

For those who prefer a panoramic view of the rising sun, climbing to the top of the dunes will take about 15 more minutes. Those who prefer to stay below can enjoy the sunrise from the local surroundings where we leave the camels.

Luxury tents have ensuite bathrooms, showers, and towels. A cozy tent offers communal facilities and hot showers outside. You must bring your own towel and shower supplies.

Does the desert camp have any facilities for showering?

Each luxury tent comes with its own private bathroom, complete with a shower, soap, shampoo, and towels. You are required to bring your own towel and shower accessories due to the communal hot showers outside the tent at Comfortable Tent.
