Itinerary
Your 3 days desert tour from Marrakech kicks off with a scenic drive through the High Atlas Mountains, where winding roads and panoramic views take your breath away. As we cross the famous Tizi n'Tichka pass, you’ll stop at small Berber villages to soak in the mountain culture.
Next, step into history at Ait Benhaddou, a legendary kasbah that’s graced the screens of Game of Thrones, Gladiator, and more. You'll explore its maze-like alleys and learn how this clay fortress tells tales of ancient trade and tribal glory.
After that, we drive through the Valley of the Roses — a fragrant stretch best visited in spring. If the season’s right, we’ll stop by a rose distillery to see how locals transform blossoms into sweet-scented products.
As the sun begins to set, we wind into the Dades Valley, also known as the “Valley of a Thousand Kasbahs.” You’ll relax here for the evening, enjoying dinner in a peaceful, authentic setting.
After breakfast, the adventure continues as we cruise deeper into Morocco’s magical south. Our first stop? Tinghir, where you’ll walk through lush palm groves fed by natural springs and explore the local oasis life with a knowledgeable guide.
Next, we head to the awe-inspiring Todra Gorge, a canyon of red limestone cliffs that rise dramatically above a clear, trickling river. It’s a perfect place for photos, short walks, and simply soaking in nature’s grandeur.
Then comes the moment you’ve been waiting for — we journey to Merzouga, where the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi ripple across the horizon. Here, you’ll mount your camel for an unforgettable ride into the desert. As the sky shifts from blue to burnished gold, your camp awaits in the heart of the Sahara.
Tonight, sit under a galaxy of stars, enjoy traditional music around the fire, and feast on a Moroccan dinner in the dunes. It’s a soul-stirring experience you’ll never forget.
Wake up early to catch the Sahara sunrise — a moment that feels like pure magic. After a warm breakfast, we wave goodbye to the dunes and begin our scenic drive north toward Fes.
We pass through the Ziz Valley, known for its dramatic cliffs and palm groves. With plenty of photo stops, you’ll witness Morocco’s natural beauty change in color and texture with every mile.
Next up is Midelt, a town nestled between the Atlas ranges. You’ll pause here for lunch and a little rest before continuing to the cedar forests of Azrou, home to playful Barbary apes. Bring your camera — this is one of the tour’s most charming encounters.
After that, we drive into Ifrane, Morocco’s alpine gem. With its Swiss-style architecture, cool air, and cozy cafés, it's a delightful contrast to the desert heat.
Finally, we arrive in Fes by late afternoon. We’ll drop you off safely, with your head full of memories and your heart full of Morocco.
