Merzouga Activities
Merzouga desert activities are something you should not miss if you are visiting Morocco and should be at the top of your itinerary. Many tourists who visit Morocco, specifically the Sahara desert, want to have a truly unforgettable experience that they might only have once in their lifetimes.
Some visitors believe that the Sahara desert is desolate and that there is nothing to do there! However, as an original Sahara desert crew living in this unique and charming area of the world, we believe that the Sahara desert is full of energy, silence, peace of mind, a variety of activities, and the greatest things to do in Morocco.
Best things to do in Merzouga include Merzouga camel trekking, hiking, camping under the stars, sandboarding in the Erg Chebbi sand dunes, and adventure excursions such as quad riding, buggy tours, Moto KTM adventures, and off-road 4×4 tours to explore the desert’s secret, untouched places.

Tour by 4X4 in the Desert
A jeep safari in the Merzouga desert is the best way to see many interesting things around the Erg Chebbi dunes, such as the neighboring gorgeous lake (Dayet Srij), which is the best region in Morocco for observing several desert birds; the lake even draws flocks of flamingos. The 4X4 tour of the Erg Chebbi dunes includes a stop at the village of Khamlia, whose residents are thought to have fled slavery in Africa’s southern countries. This frontier village is home to Gnawa musicians; you can listen to their amazing music style. Then, not far from the town and the borders of Morocco and Algeria, there is another settlement called M’ifis.
Your tour around the dunes of Merzouga by 4×4 vehicle includes a visit to a nomadic family near the borders of Morocco and Algeria.
