Local knowledge for Merzouga

Where to stay

Budget guesthouses cluster along the Route de l'Erg on Merzouga's western edge, a 10-minute walk from the Erg Chebbi dune base. Hassilabied, 4km north, is quieter and usually a few euros cheaper per night for the same dune access.

Getting around

  • CTM buses from Marrakech and Fez drop you in Rissani, 22km away, not in Merzouga. Split a grand taxi from Rissani's bus station and the transfer costs under 50 dirhams per person.
  • Book any camel trek or overnight desert camp directly through your guesthouse. The touts near the dune entrance charge noticeably more for the same itinerary.
  • Withdraw cash before you arrive. Rissani has a BMCE bank branch, but the single ATM in Merzouga village runs dry regularly, and card readers are rare at budget guesthouses.

When to go

March-April and October-November fill beds fast when temperatures are manageable. June through August is the cheapest window by far, though daytime heat routinely hits 45°C.
