EXTREME TOURS

The Perfect Travel Place For You & Your Family

Welcome to Arabian Nights Desert Camp, a luxury desert camp nestled in the heart of the Merzouga dunes, with the most spectacular view of the golden Erg Chebbi sands. What sets us apart is our location — completely secluded with no other camps in sight. Here, you’ll experience pure silence, vast open skies, and the raw beauty of the Sahara with no distractions.

Our camp has just six luxury ensuite tents, designed for privacy, comfort, and intimacy. Unlike larger camps where the peaceful atmosphere is lost in the crowd, Arabian Nights Desert Camp offers a quiet, authentic experience. It’s not just about staying in the desert — it’s about truly feeling it.

Where Desert Experience Meets Luxury

Imagine the comforts of a boutique hotel placed in the vastness of the Sahara. Our luxury desert camp offers elegant ensuite tents, locally inspired décor, full amenities, and attentive service. Meals are freshly prepared using local ingredients, and everything — from camel rides to sandboarding — is included, except for alcohol and motor sports.

Why Erg Chebbi, Not Erg Chigaga?

Erg Chebbi offers a richer experience than Erg Chigaga. Located near the main route between Marrakech and Fes, it allows easy access to major landmarks like the Todra Gorges, Skoura Oasis, and the Ziz Valley. Erg Chigaga is harder to reach and far from the flow of Morocco’s most iconic sites. With Arabian Nights Desert Camp, you’re not just in a luxury camp — you’re in the right place.

About Us

Oualid Naciri Born and raised in Ouarzazate, near the edge of the Sahara, I’ve lived with tourism all my life. After earning my English degree in 2007, I worked as a guide and driver across Morocco. In 2017, I launched Morocco Shiny Days, a tour company based in Marrakech. Taking guests to the desert made me realize we could offer more — a better, quieter, more personal camp. That’s how Arabian Nights Desert Camp began.

Ali Berhil Ali is a true son of the Sahara, born and raised in Merzouga. He spent over 20 years living the nomadic life before working as a driver in the tourism industry. During his journeys, he met his wife — a guest from Spain — and now lives between Spain and Morocco. With years of experience running and managing desert camps, Ali brings deep desert knowledge and heart to the camp.

Camp Manager: Mohamed Ali’s brother Mohamed is the soul of the camp. A long-time friend of mine and a seasoned camp manager, Mohamed will be your host at Arabian Nights Desert Camp. He knows the Sahara like few others do and is committed to giving you the best possible experience.

What Our Travelers Say
About the Trip

Emily R., USA@username
Staying at Arabian Nights Desert Camp was the highlight of our trip to Morocco. The tents are incredibly comfortable and beautifully decorated — much more luxurious than we expected! Watching the sunset from the camp’s seating area and then having dinner under the stars was pure magic. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Merzouga!
Thomas W., Germany@username
We loved the peaceful atmosphere and the way the camp is built right into the dunes. It felt remote yet so well taken care of. The food was excellent (especially the tagine!), and our hosts were welcoming and kind. Our kids had a blast too — they even set up extra beds in our tent so we could all stay together comfortably.
Amina K., UAE@username
From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely cared for. The team was warm and attentive, and the view of the dunes from our tent was breathtaking. The fire circle at night with tea and local music was a beautiful touch. I only wish we could have stayed longer!
Daniel and Lucy, UK@username
We spent two nights at Arabian Nights and loved every second. On the second day, they organized a picnic lunch for us out in the dunes — truly unforgettable! The camel ride, the meals, the silence of the desert, and the comfort of our tent made this an experience we’ll never forget.
Chiara M., Italy@username
This camp strikes the perfect balance between simplicity and comfort. It was quiet, beautifully located, and the food was delicious. If you’re looking for an authentic desert escape that’s still cozy and clean, this is it. The only thing I’d suggest is adding a few hammocks for relaxing during the day — otherwise, everything was perfect.
