Taragalte Nomad Camp is located 7km from M'Hamid (a town with 7000 inhabitants) and gateway to the desert. It consists of eight adobe tents (from the Arabic Al-tub, a sun-dried mud and straw brick, a bioclimatic construction element that has great thermal inertia, absorbs heat during the day and expels it on cold desert nights), which can accommodate up to 32 people. Each tent has 4 beds (which can also be used individually, in doubles or triples). Each tent has a bathroom with hot and cold water.

Said was born in the middle of the Sahara Desert, into a family of Bedouin origin, with a nomadic spirit, until his parents decided to settle in the town of M'Hamid, at the edge of the desert, so that their six children could attend school. The Bedouins are desert dwellers. The desert is Said’s home, where he feels rooted and deeply connected to the environment . Clad in his thawb (traditional men’s clothing) and wrapped in his turban, he maintains a close bond with his surroundings, trees, stones, stars and especially with the dromedaries, of which he has been a shepherd and is now a caretaker. He often says that for him, the dromedaries are “much more than friends” and despite his youth, he retains his tribal loyalties and the code of honour that characterises this hospitable and generous people. Said has in his DNA that characteristic of the Bedouin people, hospitality, that trait so defining of their culture. He believes that a traveler must always be well looked after and he gives his best to this. “If you are happy, I am happy” , he often says. He retains many of the tribal characteristics of his people in addition to hospitality, such as a sense of dignity, honour, appreciation of eloquence, and can sometimes become, unintentionally, a great philosopher. He often refers to the strength of his people, which has undoubtedly been necessary for their adaptation to an extremely hostile environment. He maintains a deep loyalty to his family clan first, followed by his friends and collaborators, his tribe, a loyalty closely linked to security and survival in especially harsh habitats. It is impossible to survive in the desert in isolation.

M'Hamid El Ghizlane, also known as Lamhamid Ghozlane (in Arabic, plain of gazelles), is a small town in southern Morocco located in the last of the oases of the Upper Draa Valley, between the Atlas Mountains and next to the Sahara Desert. Nestled in a palm grove surrounded by mountains that form the last foothills of the Atlas and beaten by the sands of the Sahara, this village stands out for its natural beauty, its traditional culture and for being considered the great gateway to the Sahara Desert along with Merzouga, further north and closer to Marrakech. Its population, of barely 7,000 inhabitants, is made up of a mixture of Bedouins and Berber tribes, the legendary blue men.
