Erg Merzouga

Merzouga is a small village in southeastern Morocco, about 35 kilometres southeast of Rissani, about 55 kilometers from Erfoud, and about 50 kilometers from the Algerian border. The village is known for its proximity to Erg Chebbi, a Saharan erg, and it is for this reason a part of the itineraries of many tourists visiting Morocco. Merzouga has the largest natural underground body of water in Morocco.

Wonderful Help!

I’ve had many wonderful trips planned with the help of Candy. Having only travelled mostly within North America, or to predominately English areas of Europe, she helped me be “lost in translation” and be much more comfortable with it. Guiding me on some helpful apps and travel tricks upon arriving really made for an enjoyable trip – as long as I kept my phone and external battery charged over night, but that is another story. Her support is greatly appreciated...
