Camel trekking has always been a well-known and desired type of Morocco holidays adventure, which gives you a unique opportunity to see the contrast between the traditional and authentic Bedoin nomad life style of Morocco Sahara Desert, and one of the world's spectacular and most unforgettable and enchanting adventure activity. You will be taken on a trip on the top of a camel (known to the Berber nomad people as The Ship of the Desert) throughout impressive landscapes and breathtaking views.

Out here in these two gates of the Giant Sahara Desert you can can live the ultimate desert experience enjoying a camel ride without having to worry as you go with a friendly knowlegable local guides. You travel like local nomad blue men(dressed in the flowing blue caftans and robes of the famed Tuareg nomads) in the desert while you witness the majesty of the sun setting over towering giant sand sea's sand - 150m high (492-ft.), before spending the night under a starry sky in a Berber nomad desert campsite or at an authentic Kasbah hotel (hotel in Desert) at the line of high sand dunes.
