Experience the beauty of the Moroccan Sahara in complete comfort with our Luxury Desert Picnic Experience in the magnificent Erg Chebbi dunes near Merzouga.
This exclusive experience combines the serenity of the Sahara with the elegance of a beautifully styled outdoor picnic. Upon arrival, you’ll discover a carefully prepared picnic setup featuring luxurious cushions, handcrafted Berber rugs, low wooden tables, lanterns, decorative flowers, and stylish tableware that blends traditional Moroccan charm with modern luxury.
After a comfortable pickup from your accommodation in Merzouga, you’re driven out to a private picnic area set up in the Erg Chebbi dunes, arranged exclusively for your group. The setup is ready before you arrive, so there’s nothing to prepare — you simply arrive and relax.

Choose between a morning, afternoon, or sunset picnic, each offering a unique atmosphere. Morning picnics provide peaceful desert landscapes and cooler temperatures, while afternoon and sunset experiences showcase the changing colors of the golden dunes as the sun moves across the sky.
Your picnic includes a selection of Moroccan specialties, seasonal fruits, pastries, and tea, coffee, or soft drinks, served on luxury cushions and handcrafted Berber rugs with lanterns and decorative styling. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options can be arranged if you let us know in advance. Professional photography can be arranged separately on request; alcohol, tips, and travel insurance are not included.

Since seating is arranged on low cushions and rugs rather than chairs, comfortable, relaxed clothing works best — you’ll be sitting close to the sand. A few simple items make the experience more enjoyable:
The peaceful, private setting suits couples celebrating a proposal, anniversary, or honeymoon, as well as families and small groups who want a relaxed, unhurried alternative to a group excursion. Since setup and seating are arranged directly on sand and rugs rather than at fixed tables and chairs, travelers with significant mobility limitations should contact us in advance to check whether the arrangement will be comfortable for their needs.
A private picnic pairs naturally with a more active start to the day, such as a quad biking desert safari or sandboarding on the Erg Chebbi dunes. For a full desert day, many travelers add a sunset camel trek or round off the evening with Sahara stargazing.
