The overnight experience
What a night in the dunes usually includes
Inclusions vary from camp to camp and package to package — which is exactly why we list them on every package. A typical complete overnight includes:
Transfer to camp
A 4x4 transfer from Merzouga or Hassi Labied, a camel ride, or both.
Sunset in the dunes
Arrival timed for the evening light, with time to climb a dune before dinner.
Dinner at camp
Usually Moroccan soup, salads, a tagine and fruit, served at the camp.
Your tent for the night
From simple nomad tents to suites with private bathrooms — the tent type is always stated.
Sunrise and breakfast
Watch the sun rise over the erg, then breakfast before returning to Merzouga.
Return transfer
Back to your car, your guesthouse or your driver in the morning.
Sahara experiences
More than a night under canvas
From camel trekking to Gnawa music in Khamlia — experiences around Erg Chebbi, described honestly, including whether they are part of a package.
Camel trekking
Ride a dromedary across the dunes of Erg Chebbi — the classic way to arrive at a desert camp, timed for the soft light of late afternoon.
Sunset in the Sahara
Watch the dunes of Erg Chebbi change colour as the sun goes down — the moment most travellers remember long after their trip.
Sunrise in the dunes
Wake before dawn, climb a dune in the half-light and watch the first sun spill across the Sahara before breakfast at camp.
Sandboarding
Slide down the slopes of Erg Chebbi on a board — an easy, fun activity for families and groups, with no previous experience needed.

Every package on Merzouga.camp shows its complete price, what it covers and whether it is per person or per tent.
Does a Merzouga desert camp include dinner and breakfast?
Most overnight packages include dinner and breakfast, but not all. Each package page states clearly whether dinner, breakfast, the transfer and the camel ride are included.
