At Marrakech Desert Trips, your comfort, safety, and satisfaction are at the heart of everything we do. That’s why we’ve made the important decision to no longer offer standard desert camps in Merzouga. This change was not made lightly—but with your best interests in mind.
Over the years, we’ve worked with trusted local partners to deliver unforgettable Sahara experiences. However, many standard camps no longer meet the standards we require for our guests. Here’s why:
Standard camps often lack contingency options in case of extreme desert weather. We can’t risk your safety or comfort without guaranteed alternatives.
Especially during peak season, many standard camps can’t guarantee the iconic sunset camel trek—a highlight of your desert adventure.
We’ve encountered recurring issues with some camps refusing accountability for staff misconduct, including pushy sales tactics or inappropriate behavior. That’s a red line for us.
We care deeply about the treatment of animals. Unfortunately, many standard camps fail to meet basic welfare standards for their camels—something we simply cannot support.
Most budget camps don’t carry liability insurance, putting both our guests and our company at unnecessary risk.
In light of these issues, we now exclusively work with our long-time trusted partner to offer only deluxe desert camp experiences in Merzouga. You can expect:
We understand that this option may not suit every budget, but we believe it’s far better to offer fewer tours than to compromise on quality or ethics. Your experience, your safety, and your peace of mind matter too much.
