<strong>Why</strong> <strong>The</strong> <strong>Appeal</strong> <strong>Of</strong> <strong>Sahara</strong> <strong>Tours</strong><br />

<strong>Overwhelming</strong> <strong>While</strong> <strong>In</strong> <strong>Morocco</strong>?<br />

A <strong>Sahara</strong> Trip is probably one of the primary reasons why you should visit <strong>Morocco</strong>.<br />

Camel trekking and an overnight stay, combined with star gazing in the <strong>Sahara</strong> desert<br />

will leave you with one of the most memorable experiences of your life. Here is what<br />

you need to know before you go. Actually organising a trip in the <strong>Sahara</strong> desert can be<br />

overwhelming for anybody. Let’s open the box and see what’s in there for us. Your<br />

<strong>Sahara</strong> <strong>Tours</strong> are going to be enthralling and exciting. During the tour, you are going<br />

to explore lot of things that you are never going to forget in your entire life.<br />

‣ <strong>The</strong> Trek Before <strong>The</strong> Trek<br />

<strong>The</strong> first thing to know is that there are two main ergs such as sea of dunes that<br />

formed by wind-blown sand in <strong>Morocco</strong>’s <strong>Sahara</strong> desert in Erg Chigaga and Erg<br />

Chebbi. Both of them are extremely beautiful, but Erg Chebbi is, in our personal<br />

opinion is more impressive for its grander dunes that reach over 520 feet.<br />

Noticeably, for the desert to have such an imposing isolation, you have to hop on quite<br />

a long bus ride to get out there. Although the mileage seems not all too bad, driving<br />

over the Atlas Mountains’ passes and one-lane highways can fill a large portion of the<br />

day.


<strong>The</strong> benefit of this journey is that there is beautiful landscape as you cross the<br />

mountains, with remote Berber Villages stuck between the hills. <strong>While</strong> watching the<br />

mountain landscape gradually turning from its rocky formation into the dotted sand<br />

dunes all the way through the window and that is quite a beautiful diversion.<br />

‣ <strong>The</strong> Ups And Downs <strong>Of</strong> Riding A Camel<br />

Getting into the depths of the desert by camel is the perfect and classical experience.<br />

From its high-up vantage point, a camel is a prime way of looking out onto the <strong>Sahara</strong><br />

and will give you that profligate view of Lawrence of Arabia. It will feel as you ease<br />

your way over the rolling dunes into the depths of the desert.<br />

Getting into the depths of the desert by camel is the model experience. From its highup<br />

vantage point, a camel is a most important way of looking out onto the <strong>Sahara</strong> and<br />

will give you that majestic feel of Lawrence of Arabia as you can ease your way over<br />

the rolling dunes into the depths of the desert.<br />

Absolutely, you have to wear long pants to avoid resisting on the inside of your legs,<br />

plus bring some closed-toe shoes. Also bring a pair of open-toe shoes also that will


come in handy when I arrived at the camp. After that let your feet breathe while<br />

protecting them from the sand that was still quite hot.<br />

<strong>While</strong> being seated on a camel may be very painful & rough on your backside so don’t<br />

hesitate to go for the alternative of walking alongside your camel. Or do what I did<br />

and prop your feet up on the handles cyclically to give actually a bit of a stretch to<br />

reduce soreness.<br />

‣ <strong>Sahara</strong> Attractions<br />

Now during your <strong>Sahara</strong> <strong>Tours</strong> there are numerous sightseeing attractions that will<br />

be at your disposal such as Siwa Oasis, El Bagawat, Atlas Mountains as well as Hogar<br />

mountains.<br />

‣ Berber Hospitality<br />

Spending your tour nights in a desert camp under the stars will be just jaw-dropping.<br />

Now, it is just something that you can’t forget so easily and also in a hurry. As the sun<br />

slowly goes down over the dunes, it’s very easy to feel like you’re just in a dream.


Your hosts will prepare an energetic feast for you and your tour group of family or<br />

friends. Now, the only thing you have to worry about is getting drenched up in the<br />

atmosphere and gazing at the beautiful and ever-changing shades.<br />

Sip mint tea that is also known as Berber whiskey over dinner and then get settled in<br />

for the night.<br />

It’s a possibility that your camp will be a simple affair, with both bedding and basic<br />

toilet facilities, but little else. Blankets provided are normally more sufficient for most<br />

visitors coming between the month of April and October. You may also like to bring<br />

your own sleeping bag for some extra warmth, particularly during the months between<br />

November and March.<br />

‣ Pack Like A Pro<br />

Once you’ve arrived in the small, desert town of Merzouga, you can stock up on the<br />

essentials at the few shops along the main road for examples tissues and a flashlight<br />

will come in handy for your trips and during your loo. Moreover, camp toilet and<br />

facilities were quite basic to carry during the trip.<br />

Also ensure that you have water, as well as charge up your devices before you set out<br />

for the desert trip. You are going to get power outlets very rarely that are available in<br />

the desert camps and we are quite sure that you don’t want to miss out on photo<br />

opportunities, due to your poor planning.<br />

‣ What To Wear On A Camel Trip?<br />

You should maintain your modest dressing during your camel trip as <strong>Morocco</strong> is a<br />

conservative country, particularly in the more remote regions. This means that you<br />

have to respect local culture. Moreover, you must also keep your shoulders and knees<br />

covered.


Clothing like this will also prove to be more comfortable and shield you from the sun.<br />

Don’t be put off by the heat, though; there’s no denying that it’s hot but it’s totally<br />

manageable. <strong>The</strong> most excellent equipments to wear must be loose, breathable<br />

material such as lightweight linen.<br />

‣ How To Avoid <strong>The</strong> <strong>Sahara</strong> Butt?<br />

Just do the following to avoid the <strong>Sahara</strong> butt:-<br />

1) Always wear comfortable underwear and don't wear any clothes that will crunch<br />

up your butt.<br />

2) Wear long pants, your legs won't be scratched.<br />

3) Loose clothes are great, but you won't be able to sweat and it will protect you from<br />

the sun plus you will also be very comfortable


‣ <strong>The</strong> Feeling <strong>Of</strong> Being Awe-Struck<br />

A stay in the desert is a juncture you will never be able to forget. It will be little anxiety<br />

may arise, but it’s up to you to accept the challenges and embrace your sense of<br />

adventure. As your desert experience comes to an end, you’ll be woken up in the<br />

morning of your departure before the sun comes up. Just climb up to a dune and see<br />

the sunrise that will lights up the grains of sand and alters them into creamy dunes.<br />

Mother Nature’s magic knows no bounds when its reality is compared with fiction.<br />
