TOUR 12 4x4 Desert Tours around Erg Chebbi
DRIVE CAR 4X4 AROUND Erg ChebbiAfter breakfast begin the drive to explore to the tiny villages around Erg Chebbi dunes such as Hassi Labied, Merzouga and Khamlia. In Hassi Labied you will have a stop at the garden where you will view canal irrigation system.
From here we continue the trail toward Merzouga. Near Merzouga, we will have a chance to see Dayet Srji lake that forms in spring time which attracts flocks of pink flamingos and wildlife. Bird-watchers will enjoy this peaceful area. On our way to Khamlia we expect to meet locals showing their desert foxes. We may also encounter desert reptiles and mammals. In Khamlia, known as the village of black people who were slaves coming from Sudan, we will be welcomed with a cup of tea (Whiskey Berber) while enjoying their spiritual Gnawa music.
Leaving Khamlia our next stop will be the panoramic view of golden dunes near the Algerian border. We may stop for a quick lunch under the shadow of a tree before continuing to visit a Nomad family, who are living under Berber tent and who are taking care herds of cattle, goats and camels. We will be introduced to family members and get to know about their way of living while enjoying the taste of a nice cup of tea. After these we will have a chance to visit the sites of black volcanic rocks.
Continuing on, we will reach the panorama near Yasmina Auberge where you will be amazed with the scene of the dunes in addition to the nearby lake (springtime). We will head back to the hotel for lunch and relaxation.
