Overview

A desert trek is an adventure that many travelers say come out of it grown up and deeply relaxed. They have come out of their little comfort and are happy and proud of the physical effort they have made. They discovered the sense of hospitality and the know-how of the nomads. They were delighted by the beauty of the landscapes and challenged by this wide open space that is the desert. Often the outward journey is accompanied by an inner journey. We are particularly sensitive to this, because the desert is the heritage of our ancestors, and we are steeped in it. Before being a place of accommodation for travelers, our bivouac is a place of community life and work. The team asks only to share with you their knowledge, experience and love for their native land. Finally, each traveler or group of travelers being unique, it will easily adapt to your pace and your expectations.

Itinerary

At 9 o'clock in the morning, we meet at the bivouac to get to know each other and organize the loading of the camels. When everything is ready, the caravan sets off for this first day of trekking. About 5 hours of walking per day (20 km), a good lunch break to eat and rest. In the evening, the guide and the cook set up camp for the night and prepare a substantial meal for us. During 3 days, our journey takes us through varied landscapes and terrains. Walking in these large open spaces, the simplicity of life in a bivouac, immersion in nature and the silence of the desert are an experience often described as deeply refreshing. On the evening of the 3rd day, we arrive at the magnificent site of the large dunes of Chegaga where we can climb to admire the sunset. The next day, the 4x4 picks us up for the return trip. In 3 hours, we make the route of our three days of walking in the opposite direction and discover the landscape in a different way. At the bivouac a hot shower and a last midday meal await us. End of stay, goodbye and thank you all.

sahara peace

Published on Mar, 2023

Had an amazing stay at bivouac sahara peace, thank you Moubarak. Its a remote and magical place. We stayed 1 night at the Bivouac before doing a trek with overnight camping in the desert with Atman. Atman is a quiet but really nice guy who took good care of us.Atman is responsible for the camels, which he took really good care of. After our day and night with Atman, Moubarak picked us up in his 4x4 to go to Erg Chigaga, we stayed in a nice glamping. I can’t recommend this place enough its a must see. Moubarak is a fair guy and the prices for everything we did are really fair, very good service and everything was included. After Erg chigaga Moubarak dropped us off again at the shared taxi. When we came to his place he had even arranged a shared taxi that picked us up at out hotel in Ouarzazate. I would come here again! Thank you Moubarak and the team!

A wonderful experience we would definitely recommend and book again.

Super nice tour that shows you the real Sahara experience. The guide is very involved with the locals and introduced us to local cooperatives. The guide communicates very fluently in French and English, drove us from Marrakech via a scenic route, stopping at lesser known views and places. Finally, hedropped us of at any place we preferred at the end of the trip. The food was excellent and the bedrooms, bathroom, showers were very clean. He was very helpfull and gave us advice for the rest of our journey in Morroco. I did the tour 2 times and both were immaculate (first time romantic with a girlfriend, 1 time with a group of friends) A wonderful experience we would definitely recommend and book again.

Sahara Sahara!

Published on Jun, 2022

Fantastic tour with Mubarak in M'Hamid and Erg Chigaga desert. We took a beautiful walk on sunset time with the dromedary until Mubarak's family camp, had very tasty food with the locals all the time and watched the beautiful stars at night. The people are very genuine and hospitable. Recommend this 100% to anyone looking for a real experience without lots of tourism.

Wild camping for a night

Published on Mar, 2022

We left for a night in Erg Lihoudi, reaching it after 2-3 walk, with dromedaries carrying all the necessary for the night. It's a rustic way of sleeping under the stars and one I will never forget! From when Mubarak picked us up all through the time at base camp and in the desert, we (2 females) felt safe, welcome, and in very good hands. Muhammed who took care of the animals also was a great companion, kindness showing despite the language barrier. And it was nice to have a good conversation with Pascale who worked at base camp. Would definitely recommend and may go again for a longer trip!
