Campsites in Foum Zguid

Just wow. Please go there while in Morocco! It's a great alternative if you do not want to drive all the way to Merzouga. This was truly one of the best experiences of our travels; I believe the memories of this place will linger with me for a long time. I'll try to describe our stay as much as I can: We decided to use the shuttle to the camp since we did not have a 4x4. It is a necessity to have it if you want to drive all the way to the camp by yourself. The drive was 100 EUR in total (50 to the camp, 50 from the camp - this makes absolute sense since the car gets a bit hammered cruising through the desert). We were driving for approximately 2 hours, we stopped several times to take some pics on the way. Once we arrived, we were shortly shown to our tent. We booked the deluxe version, it was quite spacious, as well as the bed, which was super comfy with many blankets to our disposal. We visited in mid March and it was quite warm so it was not even necessary to use all of them. There is a running water and even though you are in the middle of the desert, it is quite comfy. :) After our arrival, we were offered mint tea, biscuits and some nuts. We did have the chance to connect with other guests of the camp for a bit throughout the day and night. Of course, a walk on the dunes to see the sunset and sunrise was a must. We booked dinner as well (chicken tajine, soup, fruits), which was tasty as basically everywhere in Morocco we ate at. The dinner was 20 EUR / person. After dinner, we were sitting outside in the common area, enjoying the bright night sky, while Mustapha and the team played and sang for a bit by the fire. For breakfast, we were served eggs on tomato base - lovely! I just love Moroccan spices and the breakfast was full of it. Of course, we were served some msemen with it. At around 9 AM we drove back to Foum Zguid. To summarize this, we absolutely loved our stay.
