Visitors will need to get to Rissani by themselves. After that, a private driver for the desert day tour will drive a TOYOTA four-wheel drive to take you to the Sahara desert. There you will see a different Sahara!

Next we will continue to the fossil geological area of the desert. You will see the spectacular rock groups and listen to the vendors showing off their unique fossil treasures to you. Next, we will arrange for you to return to the small town of Rissani, which has always been called "the entrance of the desert" throughout the history, and enjoy the traditional food of the Berbers - the Berber pizza.

The whole tour will take about 5-6 hours. At sunset, the driver will arrange for you to take a camel ride into the Sahara Magic Luxury Camp. On the way, you can stop to take photos on the sand dunes and will reach the campsite before the sun sets. You will have the best views of the desert sunset, the most perfect way to end the day tour.

At the Sahara Magic Luxury Camp, you will enjoy a romantic luxury candlelight dinner. After a good night's sleep, we recommend that you wake up early and wait on the sand dunes in front of the camp site for the sunrise, taking in the breathtaking beauty of the desert sunrise. After the authentic local gourmet Moroccan breakfast, prepare to say goodbye to Sahara Magic Luxury Camp. The driver will drop you back to Rissani to continue your next journey.
