Days
Experience the ultimate Moroccan adventure on this 3 days tour from Marrakech to Merzouga. Where you’ll travel through majestic mountain passes, ancient kasbahs, and vast desert landscapes. This tour is designed for travelers who want to explore the authentic Berber culture, stunning natural scenery, and the magical Sahara Desert.
Your adventure begins early in the morning as you leave Marrakech and head toward the High Atlas Mountains, passing through the scenic Tizi n’Tichka Pass (2,260m). Along the way, enjoy panoramic views of Berber villages clinging to the mountainsides. Your first stop is the Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, a UNESCO-listed fortress famous for its appearance in movies like Gladiator and Game of Thrones. After lunch in Ouarzazate, the “Hollywood of Morocco,” continue through the Valley of Roses, known for its fragrant rose fields and beauty products. The journey then takes you to the spectacular Dades Valley, where dramatic rock formations and lush oases provide a stunning backdrop for your overnight stay in a traditional riad or hotel.
After breakfast, explore the Dades Gorges, famous for their unusual rock formations known as “Monkey Fingers.” Next, drive to the Todgha Gorge, a paradise for hikers and climbers, with towering canyon walls reaching 300 meters high. After lunch in a local restaurant, continue through the Ziz Valley, where thousands of date palms create a breathtaking green oasis. By late afternoon, you’ll reach Merzouga, the gateway to the Sahara Desert. Here, your camel awaits for a sunset trek across the mesmerizing Erg Chebbi dunes. Arrive at a luxury desert camp, where you’ll be welcomed with Moroccan mint tea and enjoy a delicious Berber dinner under a starry sky, accompanied by traditional drumming and dancing around the campfire.
Wake up early to witness the unforgettable sunrise over the dunes, where the shifting colors of the sand create a magical atmosphere. After breakfast at the camp, ride your camel back to Merzouga or opt for a 4×4 transfer. The journey back to Marrakech takes you through the Draa Valley, home to one of Morocco’s largest palm groves, and past traditional Berber villages. After passing through Agdz and the volcanic landscapes of the Anti-Atlas Mountains, you’ll stop for lunch before continuing through the High Atlas. Arrive in Marrakech by evening, marking the end of an extraordinary adventure.
