Discover the allure of Morocco’s famed Merzouga dunes, a must-see destination for travelers. Embark on a camel ride and experience a night in a desert camp amidst the dunes. While many opt for guided tours from Marrakech or Fez, going solo is entirely feasible and safe. As a resident of Merzouga, I can attest to its ease and security firsthand.
Merzouga, a quaint town bordering the Erg Chebbi dunes, serves as the gateway to desert adventures. Despite its significance as a starting point for dune excursions, its ambiance remains authentic, with locals frequenting cafes and restaurants. Only with the arrival of tour buses do tourists dot the main streets, leaving ample space for genuine cultural immersion.
