About This Tour
Leaving Marrakech, the road climbs over the Tizi n'Tichka pass, more than 2,200 metres high, with superb views over the High Atlas. On the other side, the landscape becomes drier and more mineral as you approach the south.
Arriving in Merzouga, the first sight of the dunes rising above the flat stony desert is unforgettable. Late afternoon is the best moment, when the sand glows orange and the shadows draw perfect curves on every crest.
The 3-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.
At the end of the afternoon you meet your camel and its handler at the foot of the dunes. The caravan slowly makes its way through the sand while the sun goes down, a peaceful moment that is often the highlight of the trip.
All you need to do is choose your date. Send us the booking form with your details and we will confirm availability, answer your questions and help you prepare your trip. No payment is needed online, you can pay later.
