Explore the essence of the Sahara Desert with a full-day adventure departing from Merzouga, where you will uncover the unique charm of the Khamlia hamlet. A remarkable journey awaits!

Itinerary Overview

Your journey begins as you convene in front of the Riad Azawad hotel at the scheduled time, leaving the urban landscape behind as you navigate through expansive sandy vistas.

The first destination is the nomadic communities, who frequently relocate across the Erg Chebbi dunes. Here, you will share a cup of tea with them as they reveal their rich heritage and lifestyle traditions.

Your inaugural stop on this excursion is Khamlia, a quaint village nestled at the desert's edge, home to the Gnawa ethnic group. The Gnawa, who have roots tracing back to Central Africa, are descendants of African slaves who settled in Morocco.

Following your visit to Khamlia, you'll have the opportunity to experience the globally renowned Gnawa music through an engaging live performance. This vibrant fusion of traditional Islamic melodies and African rhythms captivates the soul!

Your day concludes as you witness a stunning sunset over the dunes before returning to the meeting location.
