Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Foum Zguid

Our journey through the desert is an adventure that we never forget. Atmane welcomes us in Foum Zguid from where we enter into the desert. The ride to the Auberge is very beautiful, we make several stops at an oasis, a house of a nomad woman and the Iriki lake which has been filled with water again after years of drought, unbelievable that nature can fill such a large lake in such a short time, very impressive. The auberge offers a fantastic view, good food a very nice atmosphere, in the evening music is made around the campfire, very relaxed and chill. The next day we visit a Tuareg village we see how the families live here and how they provide the village with water from the oasis. We travel further through the varied landscape see dromedaries, and different animals, arrive at a hospitable nomad family for lunch and a nice siesta, what a meeting! A little further on we visit a nomad school, where the children receive lessons in a tent. In the afternoon we arrive at the large sand dunes, particularly beautiful, what a different world when you are standing between the dunes, so phenomenal! The next day we drive back, relaxed by another beautiful route, Atmane stops at various places to show us fossils and tells us about the nature and life in the desert. Thank you very much for the great experience, it was a beautiful meeting and a very warm welcome. We looking forward to a next trip where we travel through the desert with dromedaries for a few days.

simply an exceptional experience! Mukthar, Abdo and their whole family welcomed us in the most incredible way! totally recommended!

Very good location and scenery. Mustapha was very friendly. We went in August (out of high season) and Mustapha prepared for sleeping outdoors. A 1000 star hotel. Fantastic.

The People are extremely nice! We didn’t stay in the Riad, because we went spontaneously to a trip to the dessert organized at the same afternoon by the riad! We were alone in the camp and it was magnificent! Our Guides were so friendly and cooked the best Tajine for us ! At the next day he took us to his family in a tiny village in the dessert and to a tribe of Nomads! We had a really great time!!!! Thanks so much for everything! It was the best Dessert experience you could have! We were only three People!

We had a great stay at Riad Hiba. Salima and her brother Fateh were great hosts, the room was very comfortable with air-conditioning, a clean bathroom and a great view over the swimming pool to the hills across the oued. Breakfast was plentiful but the highlights were the dinners, Salima is an excellent cook and prepared for us a massive and delicious tajine and couscous on two separate dinners. We ended up staying a second night due to cancelling a trip to the desert as we arrived right in the middle of a heatwave and we’re glad we did so. Would happily stay again next time we’re in Morocco.

Perfect location for coming out of the Sahara

Great place to stay & excellent guide who drove us around in his 4x4 with music which is still in our heads
