3 days.
Suitable for most fitness levels; basic stamina for walking on sand and mounting camels is helpful.
Treks vary: sunset and sunrise rides are typically 1–2 hours; transfers between village and camp use vehicles with shorter saddle sections.
Camps range from basic to more comfortable tents; most include bedding, dinners, and music—check provider details for toiletries and private tent options.
Luggage is usually transported by vehicle; pack a small overnight bag for camel transfers and leave larger bags in the vehicle or at hotel storage as instructed.
Sandboarding is often optional; beginner-friendly slopes are available and guides usually teach basic stance and safety before trying steeper runs.
Merzouga grew where caravan paths met oasis communities; the dunes themselves are modern expressions of long-term Saharan wind patterns and local Amazigh culture.
The desert is fragile—stick to established tracks, minimize water use, avoid disturbing wildlife, and support local guides and camps that follow low-impact practices.
