Sahara Services is a small family owned agency. We organize trekking tours from M’hamid with camels or Jeeps. All tours are individually organized for groups of 2 to 12 people. Your luggage or car you can safely deposit in M’hamid.

We do also tours from the airport of your arrival, either Marrakech or Ouarzazate. We wait for you at the airport and bring you to your previously booked hotel. Or we can recommend a hotel any category you wish. Next morning after breakfast we start for un unforgettable tour to the beautiful south of Morocco.

You will see how the people live, you will meet nomads and drink the wonderful peppermint tea, the “Berber Whiskey”. You are accompanied by a camel guide and also by a cook who will prepare the typical food of the south, under your eyes. And of course each traveller will have his own camel.

On our website we show you some trekking tours, but of course we can do the tours also individual. Just take the time to send us an email with what you want to see in Morocco and we will come back to you as soon as possible.
