Could you give me more information about the expected accommodation? Maybe examples of hotels? Would the tents in the desert have a private bathroom? Plus, given the dates I assume it can get quite cold at night in the desert, would this be an issue or are they prepared for this?

The accommodation of this tour is as follows: - For the first night in Dades Valley overnight in Auber Atlas Dades - For the second night in Sahara Desert: Azawad Standard Desert Camp. Dear traveler, with the standard Camp the bathroom is outside not inside. Please let me know if you would like to upgrade to the luxury camp then you will have a private bathroom and it's inside the camp. It's not cold at night in the desert, the staff there offer double blanket.

  How much would it be to upgrade to the luxury camp in the desert? And which one would it be? Is there any time left to do any other activities in the desert? I saw the lake dayet srij is relatively close by and I've heard about activities like sandboarding etc, is there any time left to check those kind of activities?
- Tilila TravelOperator•Written December 2022
  The price for 3 Days private Desert Tour with luxury Camp is 700€ per person. The Camp Name is: Azawad Luxury Desert Camp. Yes sure you will have some free time to do any activity you want. You can do Quad Bike in morning or sandboarding after the camel ride.
