The best time to visit Morocco’s Sahara Desert is during spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November) when the weather is pleasant, with warm days and cool nights. Summer (June–August) can be extremely hot in the desert, while winter (December–February) brings chilly nights, especially in the dunes of Erg Chebbi and Erg Chigaga.
Yes, having a local driver/guide is highly recommended. The Moroccan desert and Atlas Mountains cover vast, remote areas with complex routes that are difficult to navigate without experience. A guide not only ensures safety and comfort, but also enriches the trip with local knowledge, history, and cultural insights.
We recommend packing:
Comfortable lightweight clothing for the day and warm layers for the cooler desert nights.
A hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen for sun protection.
Comfortable walking shoes or sandals.
A scarf or turban (cheche) to protect against sun and desert wind.
Personal toiletries and any medications.
A camera to capture the stunning landscapes!
Morocco is a welcoming country with a rich cultural heritage. When traveling, we suggest:
Dress modestly, especially in rural villages.
Always ask before taking photos of locals.
Respect local traditions during Ramadan (avoid eating or drinking in public during fasting hours).
Learn a few words of Arabic or Berber – locals greatly appreciate it.
Bargaining is common in souks, but always done in a friendly manner.
