                                                      Desert tours

Sunset / Sunrise Tours

 

One hour trek by camel through the dunes of Erg Chebbi until we reach the Great Dune.  There you can climb to the top to watch the magnificent spectacle of the sun illuminating and highlighting the reddish orange color of the sand as the sun rises or sets over the horizon of the desert.

 One night stay in the desert

 

We will travel 2 hours by dromedary deep into the dunes until we arrive at the bivouac of tents.  There we will experience a typical nomadic evening with traditional meals and music.  We will watch the sunset and sleep in the tents or enjoy the night sleeping out in the open under the stars.  In the morning we will watch the sunrise then return to the hotel for a shower and breakfast.

 Two or more nights in the desert

 

For the adventurous tourists we can tour the desert on camel during the less heated hours of the day and visit with the nomadic families that live in this area of the desert.  They will permit us to learn about their customs, their accomodations and their families.  A unique opportunity to learn about the people of the desert.

Morocco has international borders with Algeria at the east side, with Spain at the north side (water border through the Strait and land borders with two small Spanish autonomous cities, Ceuta and Melilla), and Mauritania at the south.  Morocco is only African country that is not currently a member of the African Union. However, it is currently a member of the Arab League, Arab Maghreb Union, the Francophone, Organization of the Islamic Conference, Mediterranean Dialogue group, and Group of 77, and is a major non-NATO ally of the United States.

 

moroccan tribes berber , amazigh tribes 

The area of present-day Morocco has been inhabited since Neolithic times (at least since 8000 BC, as attested by signs of the Caspian culture), a period when the Maghreb was less arid than it is today. Many theorists believe the Amazigh people, commonly referred to as Berbers or by their regional ethnic identity (e.g. Chleuh), probably arrived at roughly the same time as the inception of agriculture in the region. In the classical period, Morocco was known as Mauretania, although this should not be confused with the modern country of Mauritania.

Modern Morocco
On November 18, 2006, Morocco celebrated the 50th anniversary of its independence. Morocco recovered its political independence from France on March 2, 1956, and on April 7, France officially relinquished its protectorate. Through agreements with Spain in 1956 and 1958, Moroccan control over certain Spanish-ruled areas was restored, though attempts to claim other Spanish colonial possessions through military action were less successful. The internationalized city of Tangier was reintegrated with the signing of the Tangier Protocol on October 29, 1956 (see Tangier Crisis). Hassan II became King of Morocco on March 3, 1961. His early years of rule would be marked by political unrest. The Spanish enclave of Ifni in the south was reintegrated to the country in 1969. Morocco annexed the Western Sahara during the 1970s after demanding its reintegration from Spain since independence, but final resolution on the status of the territory remains unresolved. (See History of Western Sahara).  Political reforms in the 1990s resulted in the establishment of a bicameral legislature in 1997. Morocco was granted Major non-NATO ally status by the United States in June 2004 and has signed free trade agreements with the United States and the European Union.

 

 

Culture
Morocco is an ethnically diverse country with a rich culture and civilization. Through Moroccan history,  Morocco hosted many people coming from East (Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Jews and Arabs), South (Sub-Saharan Africans) and North (Romans, Vandals, Andalusia's (including Moors and Jews)). All those civilizations have had an impact on the social structure of Morocco. It conceived various forms of beliefs, from paganism, Judaism, and Christianity to Islam.  Each region possesses its own specificities, thus contributing to the national culture and to the legacy of civilization. Morocco has set among its top priorities the protection of its diverse legacy and the preservation of its cultural heritage.  Culturally speaking, Morocco has always been successful in combining its Berber, Jewish and Arabic cultural heritage with external influences such as the French and the Spanish and, during the last decades, the Anglo-American    The country of Morocco enjoys a strong sense of culture and a long and ancient history.  From the cool blue waters of the north Atlantic sandy beaches to the hot white sands of the Sahara desert this country is full of wondrous culture and scenery.  The greens of the fertile farmlands and valleys contrast with the browns and whites of the snow-capped mountain range.  Morocco is a romantic and mysterious country it is little wonder that it is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Africa.
