Meals are prepared on site by the team and become genuine moments of sharing. A cup of tea in the shade of an acacia tree, a break in the middle of the dunes or a chat around the campfire allow you to discover the Sahara in a way that goes beyond a simple hike.

At the end of the day, you reach the chosen spot to set up camp. After putting your things down, you can enjoy the peace and quiet, walk around the camp or climb a dune to watch the sunset. When night falls, dinner is shared in a friendly atmosphere before you enjoy a starry sky of exceptional clarity, far from any light pollution.
Bivouac nights are among the most memorable moments of the trip. Surrounded by dunes and wide-open spaces, you discover the desert in its most peaceful atmosphere. Upon waking, the early morning light transforms the landscape once again before breakfast and the departure for the next stage.

Nous étions 12 femmes, nous sommes parties 4 jours et nous revenons juste apaisées, alignées et émues. Le désert est une expérience extraordinaire. Brahim et ses frères sont effectivement des personnes exceptionnelles. Nous avons été accueillies et accompagnées tout au long de notre trek avec une extrême gentillesse, le sens du service, l’envie de faire plaisir et surtout de nous faire découvrir leur univers, en toute simplicité et avec une authentique joie intérieure. À la moindre question, la reponse à été « il y a toujours des solutions dans le désert », et les nomades les trouvent, pour tout. Merci à eux pour cette expérience ???? Nous ne pouvons que recommander. Vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés.Publié sur Google![]()

With 6 friends we had a beautiful desert trip for 5 days with Brahim and his very friendly crew. The cooks were great, various meals every day. We felt always safe, even with the two big sandstorms we had.we slept two nights outside, had a fire every evening, where we get nomad tea and they showed us the nomad way of backing bread. We walked 4 hours per day in the morning, made camp together and relaxed in the afternoon. Stayed 1 day next to the big sanddune. There were 7 camels walking with us with all the luggage. I Could recommend everybody to travel with Brahim and Mohammed, always friendly, big smile and everything was well organized. Maria, the NetherlandsPublié sur Google![]()
