​Deserts belong to those natural elements that fascinate with extreme conditions, an almost passionate exuberance or on the contrary their almost total aridity, whether they are icy or scorching. By their very nature, these regions have for the most part remained fiercely untamed by man.

​

The Sahara remains one of the most iconic deserts in the world, given that it is one of the largest, just behind the polar deserts, that it covers the largest number of countries - ten - and finally it is the most central on a classic world map, that is to say focused on the Greenwich meridian.

​

​Discover a unique nomadic culture

The Sahara has been inhabited for thousands of years by nomadic populations who have developed a fascinating culture different from what can be found anywhere else in the world.

 

We know the Tuaregs, or "Blue Men", by name but without necessarily knowing what their daily life consists of in this particular relief. Other nomadic peoples coexist, however, often operating around transhumance activities, on this fantastic expanse of sand and rocks. This is the perfect opportunity to discover nomadic culinary traditions, which offer their share of surprises!

​

Admire spectacular landscapes

The Sahara offers incredible and ineffable landscapes, between vast sand dunes, rocky canyons, green oases and majestic mountains. The unique perspective of waves of sand stretching to the horizon offers an impression of virginal purity and unparalleled calm.

 

The setting sun, and with it the entire starry sky in its wake, unfolds a spectacle that it is inconceivable to observe in better conditions. Not a soul, a building or even a tree to reduce the view, the firmament appears as if within reach.
 

Experience an outdoor adventure

For lovers of outdoor adventures, the Sahel is the perfect place to have fun. You can go hiking, camel trekking, 4x4 or quad driving, camping and even climbing.

 

You have to watch a camel battle, or try to climb to the top of a dune, to understand the difficulty of the Saharan way of life. This is precisely what enhances the unique experience of these outdoor sessions in this setting like no other.

​

Live a unique experience

Traveling to the Sahara can be an enriching and transforming experience, allowing you to step out of your comfort zone, discover new cultures and experience powerful emotional moments. The power of silence, the total absence of artificial light and the gentleness of time passing at a haunting pace are particularly appreciated if you have thought of getting rid of your electronic equipment beforehand.

 

In order to have an optimal stay, it is important to prepare adequately before this particular journey, by being aware of the potential risks, stocking up on the necessary supplies to deal with the heat, the cold, the aridity, and of course respecting local customs.
