    I loved the time that I spent with Mbark and Boujamaa. We spent a nurturing time together in the silence of the desert. I can definetively recommend to attend to that trip. I just give four stars, because it's said in the description, that there will be a nomadic guide, what wasn't the case in the and. I've really looked forward to spent a couple of days with a nomad. It would be just more fair to write it into the description, as it is. Nevertheless it's been a wonderful time. Thank you so much Mbark, Boujamaa and Khalil.

    Desertbrise took care of everything, including our riads in Marrakech. Their hospitality, efficiency, and skill as tour operators are excellent. Our desert trek guides were the best, and very good cooks too. I would recommend this company for Sahara treks.

      What is the sleeping bag temperature range? What do you mean by liter - empty water bottles?

    • Desertbrise TravelOperatorWritten January 2024

      Any sleeping bag is fine as weather is not cold. We have plenty of blankets. By liter I mean headlamp. This trip will be private if no one books on the same date, with extra fees.

    Asked on August 7th, 2023

    I'm interested in doing the 7 days camel trek to Erg Zahar this fall. However, I have a couple of questions. How many hours of hiking is it per day, and how many kilometers does it cover in total. Also, how many people are usually in an average group.

    Group size
    Tour Details
    • Desertbrise TravelOperatorWritten August 2023

      During the trek, you can generally expect to spend around 4 to 5 hours per day actively hiking. As for the distance covered, the trek typically spans between 8 to 10 kilometers per day. Regarding group size, on average, our groups consist of around 4 to 10 fellow travelers. But there is no guarantee that others will be on the same trek, so in case no one books, you will have the trek private and pay an extra 50%.
