Errachidia airport is the closest airport to the Merzouga dunes, just two and a half hours away. This short private tour is ideal if you fly in and want the Sahara without long drives. Your driver meets you at Errachidia airport or your hotel and follows the Ziz valley south, with a stop at the viewpoint over its long palm grove, then Erfoud and Rissani. In Merzouga you ride a camel into the Erg Chebbi dunes for sunset and spend the night in a desert camp with dinner and music. The next morning, after sunrise and breakfast, you drive back to Errachidia in time for your flight or onward journey.
