Highlights:

  • 4 nights at Kasbah Xaluca (4★) + 1 night in a desert camp (Erg Chebbi)

  • Sahara desert experience to Erg Chebbi on the old Paris–Dakar route
  • Nomad family visit + Gnawa village + Hassi Labied oasis for real local culture
  • Camel ride into the dunes to your camp with dinner, campfire, and live music under the stars
  • Fossil craftsmanship day: see how fossils are prepared and polished in the Erfoud region
  • Fossil museum visit to connect what you saw in the field to Morocco’s prehistoric story
