Read what our guests say about their journeys into the Southeastern Moroccan desert.

"An absolute dream of an experience! Traveling to Erg Chigaga with Ibooksahara was the highlight of our two weeks in Morocco. The 4x4 drive was thrilling, our driver Brahim was extraordinarily knowledgeable and welcoming, and the luxury camp nestled in the towering sand dunes was magical beyond words. The campfire drumming under the stars is something we will never forget."

"Une organisation irréprochable et un accueil berbère d’une grande générosité. Le trajet le long de la vallée du Draa avec ses kasbahs en pisé, la visite de Tamegroute, puis l’immersion dans les grandes dunes de Chigaga étaient tout simplement parfaits. La nourriture au camp était succulente et le confort des tentes royales."

"If you want real desert, do NOT go to the tourist traps. Come to Zagora/M’Hamid with Ibooksahara! Watching the sun set over the 300-meter dunes on camelback and having mint tea with our nomad guides was spiritual. Everything from WhatsApp communication to hotel pickup was seamless."
