The final Morocco vlog is here! Camping in the Sahara Desert at a spot called Merzouga.
Here we rode camels to our remote campsite, spent the night eating Moroccan food and listening to music played by the locals.
In the morning we made our way back to our new campsite by camel ride before jumping into some Jeeps to go on Safari.
To end it all a big long 13 hour bus ride to Marrakesh so we can finally show you what staying in a Riad is like.
Next stop: Flying home to surprise Jess’s brother for Christmas!

Hi, thanks for this incredible video ! I would like to know if you think if it's possible de cross the Merzouga desert alone (whitout a guide), with my backpack and my tent ? Or a guide is necessary ?
how did you get to bring your drone into morocco? i heard they don't allow at immigration.
Which moment of the year were you there? Im gonna go in february I guess irs gonna be pretty cold
Please research animal welfare concerns before camel riding.
Is Ouarzazate cold in february?
The aluminum tajine what a pitty
Fun
Amazing! ❤❤❤
Another Great Video!
Incredible to watch the majestic vista of the Moroccan desert in contrast to the blue city you filmed earlier. A positive vibe and a sense of discovery almost sending chills down my spine due to my own experience of the country now enhanced by your own trips with camels in the Moroccan desert.
I didn't make it to the actual desert though myself I just took a boat ride from Algeciras, Spain to Tangier, Morocco and got to see some interesting sights indeed.
Nice that we got to see the camp at night in the desert here, feel the atmosphere and the ways of the locals playing drums at night. Food is always interesting as shown in this video. You had a taste of some local made bread here – something I would gladly try myself!
Ways to improve for future video logs?
Perhaps that someday in the future you could follow the advice of Nomadic Matt (A known travel blogger) that you could make a "theme trip" which means you would get away a bit from the things most people do on their trips and decide to do something rather peculiar like making a trip about jazz music. Going to jazz bars, talking to jazz musicians in those bars, getting dressed like such a musician – or a fan! – or something along those lines.
And then combine the "theme trip" with something that more easily comes to mind. Not being too hard on oneself just getting away a bit from what one is used to not get bored if one feels that way.
I haven't tried that appoach myself but it sounded interesting – I mostly follow my heart!
Morocco is awesome.
Great video and good luck on your trips in the future!

the pressure cooker for the tourist, the marrakchi no longer want tourists to stay in dades or Todgha
Are the drone shots made by yourself?
Great video! I just subscribed to your channel………..if possible please tell me the name of the riad in Marakesh.
Hi there! Quick question. I noticed you were filming with a drone and I had researched that Morocco has a strict no-drone policy and that one traveler got their drone confiscated at customs. Are drones allowed? We would love to bring one but didn’t want to risk it getting confiscated.
That's nice and great
Looks beautiful but I'm too worried about poisonous snakes and scorpions to visit the Sahara desert.
Welcome to Marzouga . Feel free to ask any question. We are ready to welcome you to the beautiful Merzouga
Tooop video
how is this guy getting drone shots when the country has banned drones XD
I did it by myself with no tour guides.
Just drove in.
Woke up and there were Camels all around
Too much face time – please show scenes
Amazing video and thanks for sharing. Did you guys stay in the Desert in December? was it too cold? How was your experience?
I just watched this video and realized it's pre-pandemic. Sorry you had to head back to Australia.
African music? R u sure about that? 🤔
It's just crazy when you say the word "no", it sounds you're literally adding an r to the end of the word.
We hope to welcome Slovenia people in the Sahara Desert Morocco
Don’t go to Morocco
what an amazing experience. I just wanna go back to correct one info stated in the video. You mentioned that nearly 44 Million of Moroccans are living a nomadic life which obviously totally incorrect. The whole population of Morocco is under 40 Mio and around 65 % to 70% are living in the cities.
💖💙💖🥰
This looks amazing! Thanks for posting this! 🙂
What was the name of the traveling group you went thru for this? and how long was the over all trip?
I'm in Marrakech now what tour company you use?
MUCH better than the tour I got with some guy named Yusef around 2009.
In the Atlas mountains, of course, it snows!
It's actually amazigh music aha, hope you enjoyed your trip!
Awesome
