About Sahara Stargazing

We are the first and currently only private astronomical observatory with hotel and restaurant in North Africa installed atop our Kasbah style hotel building on an area of 500m² providing a very nice spot for the star gazing.We are blessed with a year average of 300 days of clear, cloudless skies in total absence of light pollution.

Discover Morocco Under the Stars

At Sahara Stargazing, we believe that the Sahara Desert is more than a destination—it’s one of the world’s most extraordinary natural observatories. We specialize in unforgettable Morocco desert tours that combine authentic cultural experiences with breathtaking nights beneath some of the clearest skies on Earth.

Our carefully designed tours depart from Marrakesh, Fes, Casablanca, and Tangier, taking travelers through Morocco’s spectacular landscapes before reaching the magical dunes of Merzouga, where the real adventure begins.

From ancient kasbahs and dramatic mountain passes to lush valleys and endless golden dunes, every journey is designed to showcase the authentic beauty of Morocco while creating memories that last a lifetime.

Our Story

Sahara Stargazing was founded by a team of passionate local guides and desert nomads who grew up in the heart of the Sahara. Having spent countless nights beneath the desert sky, we developed a deep appreciation for the peaceful silence, brilliant stars, and unique atmosphere that only the Sahara can offer.

While many companies offer standard desert tours, we wanted to create something truly different—an experience centered around the magic of the night sky.

That vision became Sahara Stargazing.

Our goal has always been simple: to introduce visitors to the authentic Sahara while offering an experience that goes beyond camel rides and overnight camps. Today, we proudly welcome travelers from around the world who want to experience Morocco in a more meaningful and unforgettable way.
