Moroccan Desert Odyssey: Unforgettable 3-Day Berber Escape

ずっと夢見ていた砂漠ツアーに、最高のガイド、ブラヒムと一緒に参加してきました！ サハラの雄大な自然と、ベルベルの文化に触れる本当に忘れられない2泊3日の体験です。 個人的なハイライトは、ずっとやってみたかった「星と月の下で砂漠に眠る」こと。快適なテントも用意してもらっていましたが、2日とも迷わず外で寝ることを選び、大正解でした :) マットレス貸してもらえ、気候もちょうどよく、静かな砂漠の夜を満喫した、まさに夢のような時間でした。 ガイドのブラヒムはプロフェッショナルで、ツアーは常に心地よく、サハラの歴史やベルベルの遊牧生活についての話や遊びをたくさん教えてもらえました！この体験に参加できて本当に良かった☺︎このユニークでマジカルな砂漠体験の機会を本当にありがとう！ I finally joined the desert tour I’d always dreamed of, with the best guide Brahim! It was such an unforgettable experience, connecting with Berber culture and the wild beauty of the Sahara. This 3days tour took us to a really special part of the desert — not only dunes, but also trees, plants, animals, the sun, moon, stars, and wild spirit of the Sahara! My personal highlight was sleeping under the endless sky filled with the moon and stars — something I’d always wanted to do! Even though we had cozy tents, we chose to sleep outside both nights :) They gave us mattresses, so it was surprisingly cozy and peaceful. Around our camp, there were many quiet spots where it was just us and the dunes — no artificial lights, no other camps. It felt like a truly wild and special place! Brahim was such a wonderful and chill guide — super knowledgeable, easygoing, and made everything feel natural and fun. We learned a lot about the Sahara and Berber nomad life through him.I’m so glad I joined this wonderful experience, thank you so much, Brahim, for creating such a professional yet magical and unique desert adventure!

I had an incredible experience on Brahim on his Sahara tour. I will never forget the beauty of the Sahara and the rugged African landscapes in every direction. I can cross camel ridding off of my bucket list! I went as a female solo traveler and always felt very safe and comfortable. The accommodation is very comfortable, with spacious tents and full beds and cozy blankets. You can also choose to set up a futon mattress with your blankets and sleep under the stars which I absolutely recommend if the weather allows it. All of the guides/crew are local Amazigh (Berber) and their hospitality is unmatched. They played the drums for us around the fire every night and even taught us some rhythms. They are very flexible and willing to move the itinerary around for guests preferences, just ask. I learned so much about the history and culture of the desert and Draa Valley region of Morocco. I got to see lots of wild life on our Jeep Safari. There are ostriches, gazelle, oryx, donkeys, camels, and goats all being protected in their desert habitat. Thank you for everything Brahim, Shukran!!

We had a great experience over the three days and really appreciated Brahim and the others that guided us. Brahim was welcoming, genuine, accommodating and proud to show off his region. We were met with a heavy winds and a rain shower (yes, in the desert) just before starting so Brahim and his colleagues adapted the plan for comfort and safety. Both camps exceeded our expectations for their comfort. The sleeping tents were spacious with very comfortable beds, electric lights and floor rugs. There was a dining tent (the restaurant) and a shaded shelter at each camp as well as outdoor eating spaces. We could choose where to eat depending on the weather including wind (blowing sand is not fun when you are eating) and heat. We saw eagles, oryx and an ostrich as well as as surprising number of birds. Our highlight, in addition to riding camels, was a hike across the desert, seeing its diverse life up close. All in all this was a truly enjoyable adventure

Our trip through the Moroccan Sahara was an unforgettable adventure - mainly thanks to our wonderful guide Brahim. From the very beginning, he looked after us with a lot of heart and commitment, giving us exciting insights into the desert and the local culture. He also made sure that we felt comfortable and safe at all times. --- Trip --- The trip was very varied: Day 1: We started from Mhamid. We were able to park our rental car at a camp nearby. First we rode camels for about 2 hours through the breathtaking dune landscape to the first camp. After a welcome drink, we explored the surrounding area and were able to take lots of great photos. The sunset was also magnificent. For dinner, we had the typical Moroccan tajin with vegetables and chicken. Very tasty. Together with the other travelers and staff from the camp, there was musical entertainment around the campfire afterwards. Day 2: The next day we explored a section of the desert on foot - an intense, quiet and impressive experience. After about 1 - 2 hours, an off-road vehicle picked us up and we drove through the Moroccan steppe, encountering an ostrich at close range and a huge herd of dromedaries. The second camp was slightly larger and was located deep in the Moroccan desert. Surrounded by sand dunes. The silence and the trickling of the sand were particularly impressive. On arrival, we were still alone in the camp and were served a super hearty lunch of pasta, salads and vegetables. Afterwards, we explored the surrounding area. We had to be very careful here, as the camp was no longer visible after a dune. Brahim took us to the highest dune in the vicinity before dinner. A very overwhelming and respect-inspiring view. Day 3: On the last day, we returned to Mhamid by off-road vehicle after breakfast. --- Accommodation --- The accommodation in the camps was comfortable and lovingly furnished, the transportation went smoothly and we had plenty of opportunities to take great photos. --- Food --- In our opinion, one of the best tajins we ate in Morocco. The portions were generous and very tasty. Even my partner got her money's worth despite her food allergies. --- Conclusion --- If you want to experience the Sahara up close and authentically, we can only warmly recommend this tour - especially with Brahim as your guide!

Amazing, food was perfection and the starry night was a glorious scene. Our guide was extraordinary and our experience was one we'll cherish for a life time. Thank you so much

We feel so lucky having booked the desert tour with Brahim. He is such a nice person to be around. Brahim likes sharing his knowledge about the Berber culture, the desert and the Moroccan life in general. He helped us be a part of the Berber culture for 3 days and not in a touristy, but in a genuine kind of way. Brahim and our 4x4 driver were able to show us many animals like ostriches, donkey and oryx herds. They managed to get us as close as 2 meters, which was just incredible. The camps had such a nice atmosphere and were far away from any roads and the civilization of other camps. We had a variety of authentic and very tasty food, which also met our dietary restrictions (vegetarian) without a problem. The staff was very welcoming and kept looking after us so we had everything we needed. Especially Rachid, with his positive energy, took great care of us and the other visitors in our second camp. We highly recommend staying at least two nights to make sure you can experience life far away from any civilization. This tour is worth every Penny - you support the local people and you get everything you can expect from a desert tour and more!

Brahim took us on our 3 day Berber desert adventure. He is such a beautiful man. His knowledge, humour, kindness and philosophies could teach many of us lifelong lessons. We started out by camel and spent nights is beautiful camps nestled amongst some of the most beautiful landscape that we have ever seen. We can highly recommend that you book Brahim for any of your nature-based Moroccan adventures.

Marvelous time in the Dessert. I meet my guide at his home and we traveled together, first by camel then by jepp. Always helpfull, always there if I had questions.

We had a fantastic time on our trip into the Moroccan Sahara with Brahim and his team. The sight of the sand dunes was absolutely spectacular and we had lots of fun exploring and playing in the sand. Looking up at the stars from around the fire at night was truly magical. Brahim is a very knowledgeable guide and always on hand to answer any questions we had about our surroundings. The food also deserves a mention as it was fantastic and plentiful with tea and snacks in between meals as well. Brahim and his team were also able to cater to our vegetarian and vegan dietary requirements and the meals were all restaurant standard or better!

This experience was truly unforgettable, from the food to the dunes to the accommodation! everything was spectacular we felt so welcomed and taken care of during our trip to the Sahara desert and WOW what a beautiful place it was! We highly recommend anyone thinking of going to the Sahara desert to go with a professional guide, to get the ultimate traditional experience, filled with knowledge of the landscape and culture and is also a great entertainer, like Brahim. We miss it already and wish we never left, what a magical place and experience we had in the Sahara.
