Learn about our history

Mohamed bouLfrifi

My name is Mohamed Boulfrifi. I was born and raised in the desert, where with my family, we ran a traditional nomadic life.
When I was eight years old, I moved to M'hamid - the city-grown from the great oasis, which today is the last outpost of civilization on the way to the heart of the Sahara.

The life in M'hamid is much easier than in the desert – it’s much easier to get water and food here, we have electricity, Internet and roads. But deep in my heart I will always be a Nomad. My house was and will be in the Sahara. Here I feel free, here I can be myself and give the very best of me.

The nomads

When we organize trips for larger groups, our cousins and friends help us with work- they work as cooks, guides, drivers. Each of them is a true-born Berber and has nomadic roots.

You can be sure that while trekking, they will find the right route even at night or during a sand storm, they are able to subdue every camel, pitch the tents and prepare a cup of tea before you untie your shoes, and in the evening, by the campfire, they will put on the memorable concert of traditional Berber music.
