Ready for the Adventure of a Lifetime?
Hey there, fellow adventurer! Ready to dive into an epic 7-day journey from the lively streets of Marrakech to the mind-blowing Erg Chigaga dunes? Well, buckle up, my friend, because we’re about to revamp your Marrakech to Erg Chigaga expedition in a way that’ll have you packing your bags in no time!
Let’s get the ball rolling with the lowdown. Our adventure kicks off right in the heart of Marrakech, and from there, we’ll journey through Mhamid, Oued Naam, Lotide, and finally land amidst the iconic Erg Chigaga. But wait, the fun doesn’t stop there; the return trip is just as thrilling! We’ll hop on our trusty camels, making pit stops at Bougarn Dunes and Mezouaria Dunes before circling back to Marrakech.
Now, picture this: Erg Chigaga, a sand dune paradise nestled in the Sahara. To get there, you’ve got to saddle up on noble camels, and I promise you, this experience is going to be etched into your memory forever. It’s a wild ride through one of the world’s most unforgettable landscapes!
Now, how do you get in and out of this desert wonderland, you ask? Well, we’ll swoop in and pick you up from your Marrakech digs. If your riad isn’t car-friendly, no worries, our driver will park nearby and come to your rescue.
On your grand finale day, we’ll drop you off as close to your riad or hotel as possible. And if you need a helping hand, our trusty driver can even give your riad a jingle to coordinate the meetup. Easy-peasy, right?
Now, let’s talk about the grub because, believe me, your taste buds are in for a treat! During our Atlas Mountain escapades, our Berber guides and muleteers whip up some lip-smacking, fresh, and healthy meals. Imagine breakfast with jam, bread, butter, cookies, fruit, juice, and a piping hot cup of java or milk.
Lunchtime? Brace yourself for salads bursting with tomatoes, carrots, lentils, beans, rice, or pasta. And on some occasions, we’ll even throw in some fishy delights like sardines or tuna, paired with seasonal fruits.
And dinner? Oh boy, it’s a feast fit for royalty! We’re talking soup, classic Moroccan tagine, couscous, olives, and a sprinkle of nuts and fruit for that perfect finale.
Got dietary preferences? You bet! Just give us a heads-up when you book, and we’ll cater to your needs. And don’t be shy to remind your guide and cook about your food desires on day one of your epic trek.
Touch down and get cozy in your hotel or riad.
Get ready for an evening under the stars, but first, we'll meet our crew and our humpbacked buddies. We'll head to Oued Nam, a dry river where we'll chow down on dinner. As we ride through the mesmerizing desert landscapes, we'll take a break for lunch in the cool shade. After 3 hours in the saddle, we'll finally arrive at Oued Naam for some well-deserved rest.
Rise and shine! After breakfast, we'll venture deeper into the vast desert expanse, soaking in the stunning scenery. Another 3-hour trek leads us to lunch and a rejuvenating break. Then, it's time to camp amidst the captivating dunes of Low Tide, with the option to sleep under the starry sky or snuggle up in tents.
Morning in paradise! Catch the mesmerizing desert sunrise before we continue our trek to the majestic Erg Chigaga dunes. Our journey takes us to the Sacred Oasis, a lush haven with palm trees and a perennial water source cherished by nomads and their herds. Lunch and mint tea await here before we conquer the mighty dunes, reaching heights of 300 meters! As the sun sets, dinner and local entertainment provide the perfect finale.
Breakfast at Erg Chigaga, and then it's camel time as we head back to Mhamid. After roughly 3 hours of riding or walking, we'll pause for a shady lunch break before continuing our adventure. We'll settle in at the Bougarn Dunes, where a campfire might add some extra magic to the night.
An early start and a Moroccan-style breakfast with the sunrise. Our journey through the Sahara continues, with breaks for lunch and mint tea. Our trusty camels will lead us to Mezouaria, where we'll spend the night surrounded by pristine dunes and the crisp desert air.
On the seventh day, we ride towards our next camp in M'Hamid. Upon arrival, we'll enjoy one last group lunch before heading back to Marrakech and your comfy hotel or riad.
Your final day, where you're the master of your fate!
Our adventure caters to a range of fitness levels, with moderate treks and camel rides. However, it's important to be prepared for some physical activity, so a reasonable level of fitness is recommended.
