EXCELLENT Based on 188 reviews Posted on Tripadvisor Go42071466095Verified Atlas mountains and Moha's desert camp I went on a study trip with my university that was supported by Mohab and his team. They have excellent local knowledge and provided us with a safe transport service. We also stayed in a desert camp for a few nights. It is a unique place with no neighbours, located in the heart of the desert. The clean tents have an en suite bathroom. The food was excellent and varied. I would definitely come back.Posted on Tripadvisor Scenic63530760155Verified Moha is a great host Besides the absolute wonderful place that the Astro camp is, I was treated with great attention as I have quite strict dietary requirements, Moha’s team went above and beyond every day to make sure I was comfortable enough and had enough food that accommodated my needs.
