4x4 Fossil Tour

Tour Overview

The 4x4 Fossil Tour is a journey through time — millions of years of time. The Sahara Desert was once a vast prehistoric ocean, and the region around Merzouga is one of the world's richest fossil deposits. On this tour, you will visit fossil beds where ammonites, trilobites, and other ancient marine creatures are preserved in stone. Our guides will explain the geology and history of the region, and you will have the opportunity to find and identify fossils yourself.
