What to expect
Day 1: Marrakech – Ait Benhaddou – Tinghir
Your trip through the desert starts early in the morning when you leave Marrakech and cross the beautiful High Atlas Mountains over the Tizi n'Tichka Pass (2,260 m). Take in the winding roads and wide views of traditional Berber towns spread out across the mountains.
Visit the Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, which is on the UNESCO list. It is one of Morocco's most famous fortified towns and has been used as the setting for movies like Gladiator and Game of Thrones. Keep going through Ouarzazate, which is sometimes called the "Hollywood of Africa." Then, take the Road of a Thousand Kasbahs and go through the Skoura Oasis and Rose Valley. When you get to Tinghir, you'll find a quiet town surrounded by palm trees and watched over by old kasbahs.
Day 2: Tinghir – Todgha Gorges – Merzouga Desert
After breakfast, explore the spectacular Todgha Gorges, a natural wonder with towering cliffs that rise up to 300 meters. You’ll have time to enjoy a short walk along the gorge and admire the lush oasis below.
Continue your journey through Tinjdad and Erfoud, famous for fossil workshops and desert landscapes, before arriving at Merzouga, the gateway to the Erg Chebbi dunes.
In the late afternoon, begin your camel caravan and ride across the golden dunes just as the sun sets, painting the Sahara in shades of gold and orange. Arrive at your desert camp, where you’ll be welcomed with Moroccan mint tea and a delicious dinner under the stars. Enjoy traditional Berber drumming around the campfire before spending the night in your private tent amid the serene desert silence.
Day 3: Merzouga Desert - Midlt - Ifrane - Fes
After having breakfast, camel trek back to the hotel at the dune line for a quick shower. We drive towards Fes, we stop on the road to enjoy the panoramic views over the Ziz valley before we cross the High Atlas mountains again. We stop by a town called Midelt where we’ll have lunch. We pass Azrou then Ifrane and its huge cedar wood forest to see the monkeys. We continue to the legendary city of Fes.
