About This Tour
As the sun begins its descent on the horizon, the magnificent Erg Chebbi dunes, just 50 km south of Erfoud, offer a truly breathtaking panorama. Legend has it that a wealthy local family was buried beneath these immense sand mounds, as a punishment for denying hospitality to a poor woman and her son. Towering at 160 meters, these dunes rise majestically above the twin towns of Merzouga, displaying a stunning rose gold hue that sparkles in the sunlight. During the late afternoon, as the warm light caresses the sands, the dunes undergo a magical transformation, shifting from rose gold to vivid tones of orange, pink, and purple. This captivating spectacle is not just a sight but an experience that will leave an unforgettable impression on your soul.
