Dream holidays in the desert
-
en route with Ahmed and his Bedouins
The desert is a place of endless width, a place of quietness, a sea of sand where place and time vanish. A wonderful way to experience the rhythm of the desert is the Méharée- the camel trekking. You don’t need any particular knowledge for this experience in the desert. Guided by Bedouins you ride on dromedaries from dune to dune. Trekking or riding on dromedaries, the ships of the desert, you will discover the endlessness and life in the desert. Let yourself be enchanted by the light and the fascinating landscape of the desert. Riding on dromedaries is relaxing and great fun. By night the starry sky twinkles above you. If you have slept under the sky once, you will hardly return to the tent. It’s not unusual to catch a glimpse of a shooting star, it’s a time for wishes, a time for marveling.
In the desert the noises and the daily hustle and bustle fall silent. The endlessness and the silence remain. You meet the plants and the animals of the desert and you get to know yourself. Campfires and music end the day full of experiences, by night you gaze in wonder at the twinkling sky.
You plan your own individual trip with Ahmed! There are the following possibilities:
- You fly to Marrakech or Ouarzazate. An overnight stay in a comfortable hotel is recommended.
- On the following day you travel by bus on a panoramic road over the High Atlas to M’hamid, the southern oasis of the Draa Valley. (370 km) Ahmed waits here with his Bedouins and dromedaries.
- It is possible to make 1-6 day trips with Ahmed and his Bedouins.
- Another alternative is to stay in a beautiful camp near M’hamid and to make trips to the desert or to towns nearby.
We recommend that you end your trip to Morocco with a visit of magical Marrakesh – the pearl of the South.

With his income Ahmed provides his family and finances the education of his children and sisters. Ahmed and his team are very grateful for your help. They are looking forward to you coming to Morocco.

For many years I’ve taken much pleasure in working as a teacher at a vocational College for Social Pedagogy. In the Easter holidays I participated in a guided trekking tour through the desert. At that time I discovered my passion for the desert and met Ahmet Elgasmi, who was our guide. One Year later I have visited Ahmed and his family again. My wish is to let you experience a wonderful trip through the desert and at the same time to support Ahmed and his family. Inch’ allah.
