Erg Chigaga is the classic sand dune sea. Located in the Sahara, it is accessed by camel and is one of the most memorable landscapes in the entire world.
Join the View Morocco team on an amazing Morocco tour of the famous Sahara desert.
How To Get There And Get Back
You will be picked up from your accommodation in Marrakech city. Lots of riads do not have car access so the driver will park nearby and come to get you.
On your final day, you will be dropped off at the nearest point to your riad or hotel and our driver can call your riad to meet you if needed.
Food On The Trek
Meals during our Atlas Mountain tours are cooked by the Berber guides and muleteers and the food is fresh and healthy. For example breakfast might be jam, bread and butter, cookies, fruit, juice and coffee or milk.
Lunch may be salad with tomatoes, carrots, lentils, beans, rice or pasta. Sometimes we have fish (sardines, tuna) and seasonal fruit.
Your dinner could be soup, classic Moroccan tagine, couscous, olives and may include nuts and fruit.
Can my dietary requirements be catered for?
Absolutely. Just let us know about your catering preferences when you confirm your booking to ensure that any dietary requirements are met.
Please remind your guide and cook about your dietary requirements on the first day of the trek.
The dunes at Erg Chebbi are world famous. We hope you’ll join us for a visit!
