🗓️ Best Time to Book
New Year desert trips sell out by November, so booking early is essential — especially for 31 December nights.
Would you like me to suggest a 3-day New Year Sahara itinerary (for example, from Marrakech to Merzouga with luxury camp stay and activities)?
It can include transport, camp options, and celebration details.
