Naamani Groups is a professional tourism
agency based in Ouarzazate, in the south of Morocco across the High
Atlas Mountains from Marrakesh.
We would like to share with you the dream of the south of Morocco,
the dreams of the dunes in the Sahara, the majesty of the mountains,
gorges and valleys, and the spirit of nomadic life in the oases, Kasbahs
and villages.
We offer a selection of trips and Day Trips of different lengths
and destinations to explore and discover this other Morocco full of
peace, charm, simplicity and starlight nights. The desert is another
dimension, a world apart from what we know and expect.
In the expanse of the dunes there are no distractions to
appreciating man’s greatest treasure – his own soul. Nothing exists but
the undulating sand, the expansive sky, the moon, the stars and silence.
Here, there is room for meditation; reflection on the essence of life
and the magic within it.

Habib Naamani
Moroccan Saharan nomad, was born in the
desert at Erg Cheggaga, where he spent his childhood. He is happiest
out in the dunes and set up Namani Groups as co-owner and director to be
able to offer others desert experiences.
The lack of rain forced the family to
leave their nomadic life and base themselves in the ancestral house in
the village (ksar) of M’hamid El Ghizlane. Although many Moroccans have
never visited M’hamid, they know its romantic name which conjures up the
image of the gazelles that used to roam this area.
Habib is an experienced and much
acclaimed tour guide around the whole of the south, stretching from
Ouarzazate in the west to the Dades and the Toudra Gorges and to
Merzouga in the east, and south to Zagora and the dunes of Erg Cheggaga.
In the last few years he has increased his knowledge of this area
through accompanying clients into the mountains and west to Agadir.
His first guiding experiences were
gained accompanying treks into the dunes, travelling several days with
camels and all the necessary camping equipment. He taught them how to
cook over a camp-fire, bake bread in the sand, pitch a tent as well as
some camel lore. He is happiest out in the desert and set up Desert
Majesty as co-owner and director to be able to offer others desert
experiences.
Habib speaks Moroccan Arabic, Hassani
(the Arabic spoken by the nomadic people in this region and in the
Western Sahara), English and French and knows a smattering of phrases in
German, Spanish, Italian and Japanese taught him by clients.
