Head into the immensity of the desert and enjoy a unique adventure visiting beautiful locations like Ouarzazate and the Erg Chebbi dunes with this 3-day trip through Merzouga to Fez.

3-Day Trip Details

Day 1: Marrakech - Ait Ben Haddou - Ouarzazate - Dades Valley

At the designated time, we'll leave Marrakech and set off for Ouarzazate. During the journey, which takes approximately 4 hours, we'll enjoy the spectacular landscapes of the Atlas as we cross the Tizi n'Tichka pass, which is over 2,000 metres high.

At the halfway point of our journey, we'll stop at the Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, which you might recognise from films such as Gladiator or The Kingdom of Heaven. After the brief stop, we'll resume our journey to reach the town of Ouarzazate, to be amazed by the impressive Kasbah of Taourirt.

Finally, we'll set off again to travel along the Thousand Kasbahs Road towards Skoura until we arrive approximately 30 minutes before sunset at the Roses Valley. We'll end the day in the Dades Valley, a unique spot where we'll enjoy our first night's accommodation (it's possible that, on some occasions, we'll stay at Skoura).

Day 2: Dades Valley - Todra Gorges - Merzouga

With the first rays of light shining on the Dades Gorges, we'll have breakfast and head towards the Dades Valley. Once there, we'll go through the spectacular Todra Gorges and walk around them while being surprised by the incomparable panoramic views of this valley.

We'll then resume our journey towards Merzouga by crossing the Jorf Palm Grove, famous for having the best dates in Morocco. We'll have a break for lunch before arriving in Erfoud, a small village known for its fossil fragments.

After visiting the fossil remains in Erfoud, we'll continue our journey to Merzouga. Once there, we'll change our vehicle to go up on the back of a camel and head into the desert to the camp where we'll sleep. If you'd prefer, instead of taking the camel ride you can take part in a quad bike tour, which cost must be incurred by those taking part.

Once settled in, we'll let the darkness of the night and the silence of the desert surround us while eating an authentic Moroccan dinner in Erg Chebbi under the stars - one of the most unforgettable experiences of your trip!

Day 3: Rissani - Ziz Valley - Middle Atlas - Fez

Can you think of a better plan to start the last day than witnessing the sunrise in the desert? After enjoying an unforgettable experience and being fascinated by the reddish tones of the sun on the desert dunes, we'll take a shower and have breakfast at the camp before starting our camel ride.

Then we'll set off for Fez, passing through Tafilalet and Rissani, the ancient capital of the Alaouite sultans and the birthplace of this famous dynasty that still reigns in Morocco today.

The tour will continue through Azrou and Ifrane, where we'll stop at the monkey forest to admire these beautiful animals.

After we meet with the friendly primates, we'll resume our journey to arrive in Fez approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes later, around 6 pm. The journey can be made by taxi with an English, Spanish or French-speaking driver, depending on availability.

Accommodation Options

The first night, we'll stay in Dades, with the same accommodation for both the standard and superior options: Dar Essyaha, Hotel Babylon, Hotel Le Vieux Chateau, Kasbah Tifawen, or similar.

The second night will be spent at a haima camp in Merzouga (Azawad Luxury Desert Camp or similar).

Standard haimas have a maximum capacity of 4 people and include a private bathroom.
Superior haimas have a maximum capacity of 5 people and also include a private bathroom. If needed, air conditioning is available in the superior haimas for an additional cost of 30EUR per haima.

All haimas are private, meaning that regardless of capacity or category, you will not share with anyone outside your group. Please note that during peak season, such as Easter or Christmas, standard category haimas may have shared bathrooms.

The standard and superior camps are completely separate, with differences in food and interior decoration.

In all accommodations, rooms are doubles or, if preferred, triples or family rooms.

Pickup Info

If you are staying in the Medina, you must go to one of the following meeting points:

KFC Marrakech, in the Medina, located on Av. Mohammed V
Moulay El Yazid Mosque, at 23 Rue de La Kasbah
Mohamed V School, Riad Laarouss
Abdelmoumen School
Bab Doukkala Pharmacy.

If you are staying outside the Medina, we will pick you up free of charge from your hotel or riad. If the hotel is located outside Marrakech, there will be a supplement of 10EUR to 40EUR, depending on the distance.
