Program Itinerary of the Merzouga Sandboarding
When you arrive at the guesthouse, we hand you your sandboards. Load them into the car and drive out to the dunes.
Erg Chebbi has the largest and most varied sand dunes in Morocco. If you crave the thrill of the desert, don’t miss sandboarding — it’s like snowboarding, but on sand!
It’s a unique, thrilling way to explore the dunes: the bigger the dune, the longer the ride down.
With sandboards strapped to camels and 4×4s, the desert becomes your playground. At your camp among the biggest dunes, enjoy the sheer fun of sliding down a mountain of sand. It’s a challenge — and a blast.

Reviews about the Sandboarding Merzouga
100% Suggested My flights were scheduled two days in advance, and I appreciate that Mohamed got back to me and tailored a schedule that included everything I wanted to see and do in Morocco! Morocco has captured my heart, and I will return for further tours! Mohamed became my part-time photographer in addition to being an excellent driver! His service had a significant positive impact on my experience. What occurs when you travel alone. I only have wonderful things to say and have made some really special memories. Gratitude for everything, Morocco Day Tour.
