Your journey, day by day
ERRACHIDIA – ERFOUD – MERZOUGA
Continue from Errachidia to Merzouga on a private route through Erfoud. The schedule is deliberately adaptable, so road conditions, daylight and your interests can shape the exact timing of each stop. Erfoud is a gateway to the Tafilalt region, known for date palms, fossils and the transition from oasis towns to the Sahara. Merzouga sits beside the Erg Chebbi dunes, where the road gives way to camel trekking, desert sunsets and an overnight Sahara atmosphere. The main experiences are a camel trek into Erg Chebbi, sunset over the dunes, a Sahara camp evening. Exact timing can shift with traffic, weather and opening hours, so the day is planned with enough margin to stay relaxed.
