About us
About Trip Desert Foum Zguid
Trip Desert Foum Zguid was created by a team of local Berber guides who were born and raised in the Sahara. For generations, our families lived as nomads around Erg Chigaga and Lake Iriqui, crossing the dunes with camels and building a deep connection with the desert.
Today, we are proud to share this heritage with travelers from all over the world. With years of experience in Morocco desert tours, our mission is to provide authentic, safe, and unforgettable journeys through the landscapes we call home.
What makes us different is our local knowledge and passion. We don’t just take you on a tour – we invite you into our culture, our traditions, and our stories. From guiding you through the hidden tracks of the Sahara to preparing tea around a campfire under the stars, we ensure every detail of your journey is personalized and memorable.
With Trip Desert Foum Zguid, you are not just visiting the desert – you are experiencing it like a local.
We booked a 2-day camel trek from Foum Zguid to Erg Chigaga and it was the highlight of our trip to Morocco. The dunes were breathtaking, the camp was very comfortable, and the Berber team made us feel like family. Sharing tea around the fire and listening to traditional music under the stars was something we will never forget.

Traveling with two young children, we wanted a desert tour that was fun but also safe. Trip Desert Foum Zguid organized everything perfectly. The kids loved riding camels at sunset, and the camp staff were amazing with them. The tents were clean and cozy, and the food was delicious. It was an unforgettable family adventure!
