Description
While visiting the Erg Chebbi sand dunes in Morocco, I was surprised and somewhat disappointed to see that locals drive on the dunes in their four-wheel drive vehicles. Of course, the good news was that you can hire one of these drivers to take you away from the popular and easily accessible areas to some off-the-beaten parts of the dunes, where you can take a photo like this one, even if you still have a few tire tracks in your shot.
The Moroccan ergs, like Erg Chebbi, are areas of semi-arid Pre-Saharan Steppes, and not technically part of the Sahara desert which lies some distance to the south. Technicalities aside, It sure looked like how I had always imagined the Sahara Desert would look, and I think that any visit to Morocco would not be complete without a stop there.
