Looking for intimacy, seclusion, and romance? A honeymoon in Morocco’s Sahara Desert is the perfect escape and you’ve come to the right place. The golden dunes of Erg Chebbi offer a magical setting ideal for a romantic getaway. We’ll help you plan the perfect experience, including camel rides at sunset, candlelit dinners under the stars, and a stay in a luxury desert camp.

Your journey begins in the peaceful village of Hassi Labied, at the edge of the Sahara. Before sunset, we’ll welcome you in a beautiful riad, then guide you to the dunes where your camel awaits. Ride into the heart of the desert with your partner, stopping to capture stunning photos as the sun dips behind the sand dunes.

At the end of your camel trek, you’ll arrive at our luxury camp set among the serene dunes. Enjoy Berber hospitality, panoramic views, and local cuisine. You’ll be greeted with mint tea and cookies before settling into your private tent complete with a comfortable bed covered in rose petals, en-suite bathroom, hot water, and traditional Moroccan decor.

The highlight of your evening is a romantic candlelit dinner on the dune, followed by live Berber music and dancing around the campfire beneath a sky full of stars.

In the morning, watch the sunrise over the desert just steps from your tent. A private breakfast will be served in the dunes before your camel ride back to the village, guided by your private host.

Attractions to Explore During Your Honeymoon in the Sahara Desert:

Merzouga Oasis: A Hidden Green Gem in the Desert

Merzouga oasis is a peaceful and fertile area where life thrives in contrast to the surrounding desert. Lush palm groves stretch across the oasis, offering shade and serenity, while traditional mud-brick houses blend harmoniously with the natural landscape.

What makes this oasis truly special is its ancient irrigation system, known as khettara. This underground water channel network has been used for centuries by local Berber communities to bring fresh water from nearby sources to irrigate fields of date palms, vegetables, and grains. It is a brilliant example of sustainable desert agriculture.

Gnawa Music in Khamlia Village:

Khamlia village, is famous for its rich Gnawa music heritage. This soulful and spiritual music was brought to Morocco by descendants of Sub-Saharan African slaves and has become an essential part of the region’s cultural identity. Performed with metal castanets (krakebs), drums, and deep, rhythmic chants, Gnawa music is both a form of storytelling and a trance-inducing spiritual practice.

Mifis Mining:

Mifis is a small, abandoned mining village with a fascinating past. Once an active center for the extraction of salt and kohl (black eyeliner stone), Mifis offers a glimpse into the hard life of the desert miners who worked under extreme conditions. The mines, carved deep into the rocky ground, were manually dug by local workers and immigrants, including many from Sub-Saharan Africa.

Meeting the Nomads of the Sahara:

One of the most meaningful experiences during your Sahara honeymoon is visiting the local nomadic families who live in the desert near Merzouga. These Berber nomads maintain a traditional lifestyle, moving seasonally with their herds in search of water and grazing land.

You’ll be welcomed into a simple desert tent made of woven wool or camel hair, where you can share a cup of freshly brewed mint tea, learn about their way of life, and see how they live in harmony with the harsh desert environment. It’s a rare opportunity to connect with a centuries-old culture that values hospitality, simplicity, and resilience.
