Overview

THE SAHARA WITH NOMADS
Arriving in Douz, it is better to immerse yourself in the great Desert, to live a wonderful adventure with nomads.
A great transfer of 70km deep into the Desert to meet the caravan of dromedaries, your guide and the camel drivers, and the journey begins.
A unique outing to completely cut off from the world. A real cure, a change of scenery, living to the rhythm of nature...walking alongside the dromedaries... Once tired, each one has a mount... Learn from your companions the nomads, sing, dance and especially taste local dishes.
