About this experience

Start your day with one of Merzouga’s most memorable desert experiences: a peaceful camel ride through the Erg Chebbi dunes at sunrise.

Your experience begins before dawn in Merzouga, where you meet your local camel guide and prepare for the ride. Climb onto your camel and travel quietly across the sand dunes while the desert is still cool and calm.

Your guide will lead you to a panoramic dune where you can stop, relax and watch the first light appear over the Sahara. As the sun rises, the dunes gradually change color from deep orange to golden tones, creating an ideal setting for photos and a quiet moment in the desert.

After enjoying the sunrise, ride your camel back across the dunes to the starting point in Merzouga.

This experience is suitable for couples, families, friends and solo travelers looking for a simple and authentic way to discover the beauty of the Sahara without booking an overnight desert stay.
