Tips

Pack layers: the desert can be surprisingly cool or cold at night, even in summer.

Stay hydrated; carry bottled water which Morocco Excursions always provides in unlimited supply.

Wear loose, breathable natural fabrics, sunglasses, and high-SPF organic sunscreen.

03 EXPERT KNOWLEDGE

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there electricity and hot water in the luxury desert camp?
Yes, absolutely. Our custom partner luxury camps feature private en-suite bathrooms inside each tent, hot and cold running water, and solar-powered electricity with multi-plug USB charging stations.
How long is the camel trek to the camp?
The sunset camel trek usually takes about 45 to 60 minutes across the golden dunes. For guests who prefer not to ride, or have mobility concerns, a private 4x4 vehicle is always ready to drive you directly to the camp at no extra charge.
What should I pack for the overnight desert stay?
We highly recommend packing a small overnight bag with essentials (warm layers, toiletries, camera, change of clothes). Your main large luggage remains safe and locked inside our private 4x4 vehicle or at our secure Merzouga gateway guest house.
