About Us

Who Am I?

Yassine is living in a small village called “Haroun” on the road between Rissani and Merzouga desert. From a young age, he had an extreme passion for horses and he was spending hours on his daily routine riding his horse and exploring nature, and as he grew older, his love for horses only grew stronger.

As a young man, he finally decided to turn his passion into a real career and started a small independent local business under the name “Merzouga Horse Riding” which provides horseback excursions and tours in Merzouga Sahara and the surrounding area.

Merzouga Horse Riding was a success from the start, as visitors from all over the world were already drawn to the beauty of the desert and the thrill of horseback riding.

Yassine has trained his horses with full care and attention, and each horse was hand-selected for its gentle temperament and ability to navigate the desert terrain.
