About this trip
Five days in Morocco built around one thing: getting properly into the Sahara. You travel by foot, camel and 4x4 to reach a desert camp near an oasis, well away from roads and towns.
Nights are spent sleeping under the stars in the camp, with sunrise and sunset over the dunes as the main event each day. It's a slower, quieter kind of trip that leans on the landscape rather than a packed itinerary.
Works well as a short trip on its own or tacked onto a longer Morocco itinerary if you want more time in the country.
