Under the canopy of stars – camping in Morocco

Camping within Morocco’s Sahara Desert offers so much more than sleeping under canvas and spending a night in the dunes. We encourage you to experience the local culture and rich environment, yet the desert is a relaxed place. The quietude and space is indescribable, the night-sky boundless, and the scenery otherworldly.

Activities in the dunes include guided hiking, camel trekking, sand-boarding, picnics, sunset vantage points, and hammocks.

The journey to the Sahara is an integral element of the camping, and it has never been easier to reach the desert. We arrange the camping as a complete guided package (see below) or there is a choice of internal flights to Zagora.
Alternatively, if you self-drive a 4×4 rental, we have to provide a local guide at Mhamid or Foum Zguid to navigate you across the desert.

For details of how to reach the camps, by vehicle or by foot, please get in touch or browse our 4×4 Tours and Trekking suggestions.
