Looking for the best Merzouga desert excursion? At Moroko Tour, we offer the ultimate 4x4 Sahara tour in Merzouga — a perfect way to explore the fascinating sites surrounding the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi.

Whether you're looking to experience Berber culture, explore natural landscapes, or witness panoramic desert views, this guided off-road trip has it all.

🌴 Visit the Hassi Labied Oasis

We’ll start our Merzouga desert adventure with a visit to the Hassi Labied oasis, a quiet and peaceful place known for its traditional irrigation system and lush farmland. Here, you’ll see how locals cultivate their crops using ancient water channels.

🦩 Discover the Seasonal Merzouga Lake (Lake Srij)

Next, we drive to Lake Srij, a seasonal salt lake located south of Merzouga. When full, it becomes a paradise for birdwatchers with sightings of pink flamingos and other migratory birds. The view of Erg Chebbi dunes on one side and the mountains on the other makes for an unforgettable photo opportunity.

🎶 Experience the Culture of Khamlia Village

In Khamlia village, you'll be welcomed by the Gnawa musicians — descendants of sub-Saharan Africans who were brought to Morocco centuries ago. Their vibrant music, drumming, and singing are rooted in spiritual and cultural traditions. It's a unique stop that offers a deeper understanding of Moroccan desert heritage.

🪨 Explore the Fossils & Mines of M’ifis

We’ll continue our journey to the M’ifis fossil mines, located on a scenic high plateau. This area is well known for its ancient fossils and mineral formations. The active open-cast mines are over 35 meters deep and worked by local Berber miners. The panoramic views here over the desert are simply spectacular.

🏕️ Visit Nomadic Berber Families

One of the highlights of this Erg Chebbi 4x4 tour is visiting a Berber nomadic family living traditionally in the Sahara. Enjoy a cup of refreshing mint tea and learn about their daily life, hospitality, and how they survive in this harsh but beautiful environment.

📸 Scenic Stops & Return to Merzouga

Throughout the tour, we’ll make several panoramic stops to capture the best photos and enjoy the vast desert scenery. The tour concludes back at your accommodation in Merzouga or Hassi Labied village.
