Dunes in the Sahara Desert

 


Erg Chebbi Dunes are a stunning part of Sahara Desert, on the southeastern part of Morocco, close to the Algerian border.

This incredible sea of sand is the ideal place for a couple of days to enjoy one of the best holiday destinations in Morocco. Explore the dunes and admire a beautiful sunrise or sunset over the horizon.

Challenge yourself to climb the 250 m / 810 ft “Grand Dune” near Merzouga village. The serene warm wind will welcome you. The vistas are breathtaking and worth the 1-hour effort climbing up. You can choose and book your Merzouga hotel and stay relaxing for a couple of days.

“Having a surprising orange hue, the Erg Chebbi Dunes are one of the most beautiful places in Africa.”

Blyde River Canyon

The Blyde River Canyon is one of the most beautiful places I visited during my trip to South Africa. The amazing landscapes and outstanding colors made me experience unforgettable trekking moments.

“The Park encompasses the famous canyon which is the third deepest in the world and the largest in South Africa.”

Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve is located in the Mpumalanga region, near the small town of Graskop. It extends over 50 km / 31 mi across different types of terrain and vegetation.

Lisbon Falls


These amazing waterfalls of 92 m / 301 ft are the highest in the region. I was actually very intrigued with the name of these falls, since I was born in the city of Lisbon.
