THE STORY BEHIND THIS PROGRAMME

Discover more than the route.

Merzouga sits beside Erg Chebbi in the broader Tafilalet landscape. Nearby Rissani connects the region with the origins of the Alaouite dynasty and older caravan routes. Explore that wider context with a guide rather than seeing the south only as a dune backdrop.

Erg Chebbi

Choose a guided dune outing with clear timing, route and physical demands.

Sunrise or sunset

Arrange a short experience around the light, with a confirmed return route.

Regional discoveries

Discuss a separate Rissani or oasis visit to add market and landscape context.

STEP BY STEP

How your day unfolds.

  1. 01

    Meet your host · ingredients and context

    Discuss meal and drinking-water arrangements with your desert host. Ask about the local preparation, seasonal ingredients, allergies and dietary preferences before the encounter.

  2. 02

    Explore food traditions with your host

    A Moroccan shared meal: Ask about the prepared menu, vegetables and portions before your excursion. Regional ingredients: Explore dates and local cooking with a host; dietary needs should be confirmed in advance. A market walk, cooking demonstration or tasting format is chosen only after a host confirms the actual service.

  3. 03

    A shared pause · take the story home

    The proposed tasting is included in the sample concept. A full cooking lesson, restaurant meal and alcoholic drinks are excluded unless explicitly added by the approved host.
