SAHARA EXPLORE

Private Morocco tours from M’hamid

Private Morocco tours, planned from the desert south.

Tell us where you want to go, how long you have and what pace suits you. We’ll help build a private route with honest drive times and clear details before you book.

Based in M’hamid El Ghizlane

We plan the route around the time you actually have.

We live and work in M’hamid El Ghizlane, where the paved road gives way to the tracks for Erg Chegaga. From here, we plan private routes across Morocco, matching places to real drive times, the season and the way your group wants to travel.

Why our base matters

Our work starts in M’hamid, before the road becomes desert track.

M’hamid is the last oasis town before the tracks to Erg Chegaga. Working from here helps us judge the season, drive times, vehicles and camp options before we suggest a route. Across Morocco, we work with guides and hosts who know their own region.

Morocco, place by place

Choose fewer places and give them enough time.

The far Sahara

Vast, untamed dunes reached only by 4×4; the Sahara at its most elemental.

Best October–April

Gateway to the desert

A frontier oasis where the paved road ends and Saharan journeys begin.

Zagora Province

Oases & earthen villages

A green ribbon of palms, kasbahs and ancient caravan stories running south.

Southern Morocco

Beyond the road

What we check before you book

A route should work on the road, not only on paper.

01

Based in M’hamid

We know the southern routes, desert tracks and seasonal conditions first-hand.

02

Only your group

Your dates, interests and preferred pace determine the route.

03

Stays matched to the route

We recommend camps and riads that make sense for the places and pace you choose.

04

Help during the trip

We confirm the practical details before arrival and remain available 24/7 during your active trip.

Beyond the paved road

Erg Chegaga takes time and a suitable 4×4.

Erg Chegaga is not a roadside stop. From M’hamid, allow roughly two hours to cross changing desert tracks by 4×4. Before you confirm, we explain the drive, vehicle, camp standard, meals, activities and anything that is not included.
