Desert of M'hamides













Programme
Live the experience of the true desert, which very few tourists dare to visit, preferring Merzouga desert, which over time and very strong pressure, has become like a highway teeming with 4X4 vehicles, quads and all-terrain motorcycles, accompanying dromedaries and sometimes frightening them. At M’Hamides, it is the sublime beauty of the desert with its natural calm and its extremely rare silence where you will feel the magnificent splendor of the Sahara.
