The adventure begins in the largest arid region in the world, namely the Sahara. This one covers about 9 million square kilometers, and it extends over a dozen countries, including Algeria, Chad, Egypt, Libya, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Sudan and Tunisia. Through 4x4 hikes, explorers can enjoy notable panoramas passing by dunes, rocky mountains, or the sea of sand, a typical attribute of the Sahara.
On the Moroccan side, the dunes of Merzouga are extremely popular with safari enthusiasts. The most impressive thing is that the dunes change from golden pink to deep orange with sunlight. Nothing is better than a quad, buggy or camel trip to admire this spectacle. For those who want to meet an indigenous ethnic group, the Berber camps are located nearby, and the cultural immersion is grandiose.
The White Desert of Egypt is the next stopping point. It takes its name from the famous, unique white chalk rock formations. But that's not all. Exploring the zone in a 4X4 is best for discovering unique natural sculptures in the shape of giant mushrooms or towers. There are even base camps where travelers can enjoy camping under the stars.
Oasis is considered to be a true haven of greenery in the desert. They allow local communities to obtain water and contribute to the fertility of agricultural land, so it is imperative to visit them. Egypt, Tunisia and Algeria are home to the most famous ones. A tour of an oasis offers a different perspective on the desert. ◄
