Todo muy bien. El campamento delux estaba muy bien equipado y la comida rica y abundante. La amabilidad y atención del personal y de las guías de 10. Lo único que recomendaría cambiar es el horario de salida en invierno ya que el sol amanece más tarde y estaría mejor salir más tarde para aprovechar el amanecer y no tener tanto frío. Translate this opinion into English.

All very well. The deluxe camp was very well equipped and the food was delicious and abundant. The kindness and attention of the staff and the guides are 10. The only thing I would recommend changing is the departure time in winter since the sun rises later and it would be better to leave later to take advantage of the sunrise and not be so cold.

Los agentes y guías de los camellos siempre fueron muy atentos , serviciales , amables con nosotros . Hay dos Haimas superiores , nos " toco" la más antigua y vimos diferencia respecto a la nueva. Sigo sin saber por más que pregunte el criterio del porqué nos cambiaron de la nueva a la vieja. Respecto a las habitaciones sin pega, muy cómodas, limpias y completas. Sin duda repetiremos pero exigiendo que nos dejen en las nuevas . Translate this opinion into English.

The camel agents and guides were always very attentive, helpful, and kind to us. There are two superior Haimas, we "touched" the oldest one and we saw a difference compared to the new one. I still don't know, no matter how many times I ask, the reason why they changed us from the new to the old. Regarding the rooms, no problem, very comfortable, clean and complete. Without a doubt we will repeat but demanding that they leave us in the new ones. Opinion translated. Show original.

Nos encantó la excursión. Fuimos en quad hasta el campamento y fue una pasada. El campamento es estupendo, muy bonito tanto el exterior como las habitaciones, que nos encantaron. La cena y el desayuno estaban riquísimos y el espectáculo de tambores nos gustó mucho. El personal fue muy amable y divertido. Translate this opinion into English.

We loved the excursion. We went by quad to the camp and it was amazing. The camp is great, very beautiful both the exterior and the rooms, which we loved. Dinner and breakfast were delicious and we really liked the drum show. The staff was very friendly and fun. Opinion translated. Show original.

La experiencia es increíble, las tiendas bastante bien. No nos sirvieron nada de beber durante la cena, tampoco una botella de agua en la habitación para la noche.. En la descripción de la actividad se habla de ver el amanecer luego un desayuno y vuelta a merzouga después de una ducha. Sin embargo la salida por la mañana fue muy precipitada, se sirvió el desayuno dentro de la carpa mientras amanecía y luego nos hicieron subir rápidamente al camello antes de que el sol terminara de salir.

Te hacen estar 15 mins antes y NADIE DE CIVITATIS TE AVISA de que la excursión va a empezar media h tarde. Estamos esperando en un hotel de lujo y no ponen ni el aire acondicionado para hacer un poco más amena la espera, cuando estamos a 46°C. Para colmo, te piden por una botella de agua 2€!! Los supuestos bereberes usan IPHONE y el espectáculo de tambores lo puedo hacer yo disfrazada. Recomendable la experiencia de subir en camello y estar en el desierto, pero considero una actividad MUY GUIRI

La verdad es que el paseo en camello estuvo bien. Pero el campamento de las dunas...... No fue lo que esperábamos. Para empezar, el campamento no esta en las dunas, el suelo es de tierra y estas al lado de una carretera. Para seguir, el recibimiento fue bastante frío y el espectaculo de tambores brillo por su ausencia. Nostros que fuimos con niños se llevaron un chasco enorme. Por lo demás, todo fue correcto.

I travelled with small children

Según la ley vigente los campamentos deben situarse en tierra, no siendo posible que establecerlos en las dunas, aunque el paseo en camello se da por esa zona. Por una incidencia puntual no fue posible ofrecer el espectáculo de tambores, lo sentimos. Hemos aplicado por ello la compensación apropiada.

El alojamiento superior superó lo indicado en las fotos (no sé si por error nos ubicaron en uno mas deluxe). El paseo en camello muy bonito. La cena muy buena. El espectáculo tras la cena muy agradable también. Como nota negativa es que no nos dió tiempo a disfrutar del campamento ya que se llega tarde y se va temprano. Creo que lo suyo es añadir una excursión al desierto para que se pueda disfrutar Translate this opinion into English.

The superior accommodation exceeded what was shown in the photos (I don't know if by mistake we were placed in a more deluxe one). The camel ride was very nice. The dinner was very good. The show after dinner was also very pleasant. As a negative note, we didn't have time to enjoy the camp because we arrived late and left early. I think it would be good to add a desert excursion so that it can be enjoyed. Opinion translated. Show original.

DECEPCIONANTE. Pese a ir con la idea de que aquello no sería una actividad auténtica en el desierto, nos llevamos una decepción. Sólo éramos dos personas pero enseguida nos juntamos con todo el grupo de españoles que iban en un viaje organizado y formamos un grupo de unas 30 personas, excesivo. Por el camino no paran de pasar quads, bugys, y más gente, la soledad y tranquilidad del desierto ni se huele. La noche musical resultó ser los españoles bebiendo cervezas cantando la macarena. Un circo.

DISAPPOINTING. Despite going with the idea that it wouldn't be an authentic desert activity, we were disappointed. There were only two of us, but we quickly joined up with the whole group of Spaniards on an organized tour, forming a group of about 30 people—far too many. Quads, buggies, and more people kept passing by along the way; the solitude and tranquility of the desert was nowhere to be found. The musical evening turned out to be the Spaniards drinking beer and singing "La Macarena." A circus.

Esperienza molto bella, anche se noi siamo stati penalizzati dal brutto tempo. Forse proporrei un giro in cammello più corto perché non essendo abitata tu porterebbe risultare un po’ doloroso dopo un po’. Personale super accogliente e gentile, stanze e bagni puliti e spettacolo dei tamburi piacevole, anche se ci aspettavamo qualcosa di più organizzato. Translate this opinion into English.

Very nice experience, even if we were penalized by the bad weather. Maybe I would suggest a shorter camel ride because as it is not inhabited it would be a bit painful after a while. Super welcoming and kind staff, clean rooms and bathrooms and a pleasant drum show, even if we expected something more organised. Opinion translated. Show original.

Excelente el campamento las habitaciones con ropa de cama y toalla. Hay duchas y sanitarios compartidos. La cena y los chicos que sirven, acomodan y asignan las habitaciones un 10. Solo falta un poco de organización para quienes no vamos en grupos. Si bien podemos esperar en el hotel que tiene excelentes instalaciones, como que hay que preguntar cuando salimos viendo que los grupos salen primero. Translate this opinion into English.

Excellent camp rooms with bed linen and towel. There are shared showers and toilets. The dinner and the guys who serve, accommodate and assign the rooms a 10. The only thing missing is a little organization for those of us who don't go in groups. Although we can wait at the hotel, which has excellent facilities, we have to ask when we leave, seeing that the groups leave first. Opinion translated. Show original.

È stata una esperienza molto bella e divertente. L'organizzazione ci ha cambiato il campo standard con quello superior senza preavviso, nonostante un po' di confusione all'arrivo alle tende ci hanno trattato molto bene. Consiglio il campo superior in quanto molto confortevole. Suggerisco solo di verificare con più attenzione le prenotazioni perché quando ci siamo presentati al punto di incontro di Merzouga non ci è stato richiesto il voucher e il nominativo ma solo una conferma verbale, Translate this opinion into English.

It was a very beautiful and fun experience. The organization changed our standard camp to the superior one without warning, despite a bit of confusion upon arrival at the tents they treated us very well. I recommend the superior camp as it is very comfortable. I only suggest checking the reservations more carefully because when we showed up at the meeting point in Merzouga we were not asked for the voucher and name but only a verbal confirmation, Opinion translated.

Empezó puntualmente en un Riad, con un espacio de espera agradable. Salió puntual. El paseo hasta las carpas fue muy divertido por los camellos, una pena la suciedad comienzo y el ruido de los quad,. El desierto es precioso, la arena con un color muy original. Los chicos muy atentos con las fotos y lo que hiciera falta. En las carpas el atardecer, muy grata experiencia. Las habitaciones impecables, sin un grano de arena. La comida en general correcta, el espectáculo muy animado. Recomendable!. Translate this opinion into English.

It started on time in a Riad, with a pleasant waiting space. He left on time. The walk to the tents was very fun because of the camels, a shame about the dirt at the beginning and the noise of the quads. The desert is beautiful, the sand with a very original color. The guys were very attentive with the photos and whatever was needed. In the tents at sunset, a very pleasant experience. The rooms were impeccable, without a grain of sand. The food is generally correct, the show very lively. Recommendable!. Opinion translated. Show original.

Il giro in dromedario è molto suggestivo. Una volta arrivati all'accampamento ci è stato servito del thè e i seguito la cena con una tajine berbera squisita. Nel complesso una bellissima esperienza. L'unico neo è che non siamo stati avvisati del fatto che il tour sarebbe partito alle 19 anziché alle 17.30 e avevamo fatto le corse per arrivare in orario al Riad. Translate this opinion into English.

The dromedary ride is very suggestive. Once we arrived at the camp we were served tea and followed dinner with an exquisite Berber tagine. Overall a great experience. The only con is that we weren't advised that the tour was leaving at 7pm rather than 5.30pm and we had made the runs to get to the Riad on time. Opinion translated. Show original.

Campo standard molto carino. Molto bello il giro sui dromedari, con guida dedicata per 4 persone. Camere spaziose, carine e pulite. Bagni in comune a livello di un normale campeggio, ben forniti di acqua calda e carta igienica. Cena e colazione, considerato location e prezzo, di livello. Unica lèggerà pecca è organizzazione degli spostamenti non troppo chiara nella comunicazione (i berberi parlano quasi tutti SOLO spagnolo, e non capiscono inglese e francese e italiano Translate this opinion into English.

Very nice standard course. The ride on dromedaries is very nice, with a dedicated guide for 4 people. Spacious, nice and clean rooms. Shared bathrooms at the level of a normal campsite, well stocked with hot water and toilet paper. Dinner and breakfast, considering location and price, level. The only slight flaw is the organization of movements that is not too clear in communication (the Berbers almost all speak ONLY Spanish, and do not understand English, French and Italian Opinion translated.

Ottima esperienza. Unica pecca le temperature, ma ad agosto c’era da aspettarselo. Il giro in cammello è iniziato alle 19, senza troppo caldo. Ma la notte è stato difficile dormire perché nelle tende c’era molto caldo, anche nella tenda dove si mangiava. Inoltre, il giro in cammello è abbastanza lungo (all’andata 1 ora!) le selle possono risultare scomode. Non è banale rimanerci sopra senza avvertire dolori. Io personalmente ero esausta alla fine del tour. Translate this opinion into English.

Great experience. The only flaw the temperatures, but in August it was to be expected. The camel ride started at 7pm, not too hot. But it was difficult to sleep at night because it was very hot in the tents, even in the tent where we ate. Furthermore, the camel ride is quite long (1 hour one way!) and the saddles can be uncomfortable. It is not trivial to stay on it without feeling pain. I personally was exhausted at the end of the tour. Opinion translated. Show original.

Giro in cammello buono, campo discreto, come la cena. Intrattenimento con tamburi passabile, organizzazione pessima. Abbiamo deciso di rientrare in jeep, costo del servizo 10 € a persona. Alzate alle 6.00 abbiamo dovuto aspettare fino alle 8.20 per ripartire: la macchina non era esclusiva, ma era quella di servizio utilizzata per il trasporto materiale dalla città al campo.. Assurdo pagare ben 20 € per un’auto che sarebbe comunque partita ed in piu ad un orario non accettabile

Good camel ride, decent camp, like the dinner. Entertainment with drums was passable, terrible organization. We decided to return by jeep, cost of the service 10 € per person. We got up at 6:00 and had to wait until 8:20 to leave: the car was not exclusive, but it was the service vehicle used for transporting materials from the city to the camp. It's absurd to pay 20 € for a car that would have left anyway and at an unacceptable time.

Il fornitore locale cerca di rendere l'attività all'altezza delle aspettative di tutti i partecipanti. Ci dispiace che per voi non sia stato così. Terremo conto dei vostri commenti per migliorare il servizio.

Premessa: la gita si è svolta in una notte con forte vento e visibilità limitata. Non abbiamo potuto osservare né tramonto né alba tra le dune. Inoltre a causa del vento che faceva sbattere i teli delle tende, abbiamo dormito assai poco. In generale, buona organizzazione a parte l'orario di partenza, che è stato verso le 17.45 anziché le 16 come indicato. Personale carino e cena e colazione discrete. Fate poi attenzione: 1h20 di cammello potrebbe mettere a dura prova le vostre chiappe! Translate this opinion into English.

Premise: the tour took place on a night with strong wind and limited visibility. We could not observe either sunset or sunrise in the dunes. Also due to the wind that made the curtains flap, we slept very little. In general, good organization apart from the departure time, which was around 5.45pm instead of 4pm as indicated. Nice staff and decent dinner and breakfast. Then pay attention: 1h20 of camel could put a strain on your buttocks! Opinion translated. Show original.
