  • All your money goes straight to the family.  You pay them directly at the begining of your visit.  There are no hotel managers or pushy guides to pay. This holiday is fairly priced, permitting the Fayou Family to improve their standard of living and quality of life, while providing you with a very reasonably priced holiday.  Please do not haggle with the family; all prices are fixed and agreed at the time of booking. 
  • If additional camels are needed to accommodate your group they are rented locally, providing extra income for other local familes.  On longer camel treks you may stay overnight with nomadic berber familes who are paid fairly for their hospitality. 
  • Please respect the families culture and home by dressing modestly (see "You need to bring ..") and by smoking only in your room or away from the home and family.  If you bring alcohol please do not drink excessively and not in front of the family.  Thank you for your kind consideration.   
  • We strongly encourage the drinking of boiled well water (provided free of charge).  The purchase of bottled water is possible in the local village shop; however the disposal of plastic bottles is problematic.  Please bring a refillable water bottle so that you can carry a small supply of personal drinking water at all times.
  • Food scraps and vegetable peelings are fed to the families animals, nothing is wasted. 
  • Cooking is powered by bottled gas to reduce the amount of vegetation removed from the local arid landscape. 
  • Electric lights in the family home are powered by a solar panel attached to the roof.
