You will ride camels at sunset and sunrise, sleep in a Berber desert camp, eat dinner by the fire, and return the next day. Drivers such as Ibrahim, Mohamed Ben Haddou, Laarbi, and Badr are frequently assigned to groups.

“The drive is long, but the day goes by quite nicely, there’s plenty of stops to stretch your legs.
