    We spent two nights at Amskou Camp and WOW!!! Ali was beyond kind and accommodating. We arrived without having booked any activities, and he made sure that we did everything that we wanted - private tour in a 4x4, quad tour in the dunes, sunset...

We promise you we will do our best to make your experience in the Sahara desert unique, exciting and unforgettable in the comfort and luxury of our camp with high standard rooms and services.
My name is Ali, I was born in a nomad family in a village in the south of Morocco not far from Rissani town and the desert dune of Erg Chebbi. I boast over 20 years experience as tourist guide for groups and private people who come from all over the world to visit my beautiful country. I have a local tourist agency and togheter with my staff we organize tours throughout Morocco. In 2019 the passion for my job led me to realize my dream…that dream was Amskou Nomad Camp. It was my grandmother who suggested this name for my desert tented camp. She told me that Amskou is an ancient Berber word that describes a beautiful and good place to settle. A place with soft, welcoming and fertile ground where the tribe feels safe and will live well and where animals can grow strong and produce more milk. A place that feels right. Amskou is our beautiful oasis in the desert. It's a place we dreamt of and found learning from the wisdom of the ancient nomadic caravans. These were nomad people who didn't choose perhaps the greenest or most comfortable place, but the right place.
If you are interested we can arrange for you a 3 days desert tour from Marrakech or Fes or more complete tours of Morocco with a stop in Erg Chebbi desert. Furthermore we can offer you these desert experiences that require advance reservation: - camel trekking on the dunes to admire the spectacular sunset and sunrise - dune Buggy over the dunes - 4x4 excursions exploring the desert, villages and beyond. A good way to experience Berber history, culture and take a glimpse at the traditional local way of life. Duration approx 3hrs. Itinerary includes, for example, a visit to a nomad family living on the desert edge to share refreshments, meeting children and seeing how the ladies of the household carry out their day; fossil searching, if you're interested in rocks there's nothing sweeter than finding your own; a visit to abandoned historical villages and a working mineral quarry; impressive panoramic views at erg Zniggi. A stop at Khamlia village to listen to the musicians, descendants of slaves from Mali and Mauritania playing the rich and spiritual sound of Gnaoua music; exploration of the local villages and experiencing Amazigh life at close hand.
