4 Days · From Marrakech
This 4-day desert trip departing from Marrakech is a carefully organised way to experience the Erg Chebbi dunes of Merzouga. Our local team takes care of the transport, the overnight stays and the timing, so you can simply enjoy the road, the landscapes and the people you meet. Every departure is run by experienced drivers and guides who know the region well and are happy to share stories, stop for photos and adapt the pace to your group.
About This Tour
The journey from Marrakech crosses the High Atlas through the Tizi n'Tichka pass, then continues past kasbahs, oases and red earth villages, with plenty of stops for photos and tea along the way.
Erg Chebbi stretches for about 22 kilometres near the Algerian border, and Merzouga is the village at its foot. Here you leave the vehicle behind and enter a world of sand, where the only sounds are the wind and the steps of the camels.
The 4-day programme is flexible: you can start early to make the most of the light, or take things slowly and enjoy long breakfasts and lunches in local restaurants. Accommodation is booked in advance in places we know and trust.
Camels are gentle animals and the ride needs no experience. Wear comfortable clothes, wrap a scarf around your head like the locals do, and enjoy the rolling motion as the dunes turn gold around you.
To reserve this tour, simply send us your preferred date and group size using the booking form. We answer every request personally and can tailor the programme, the accommodation and the pace to your wishes.
