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.
Merzouga sits at the edge of Erg Chebbi, a sea of orange dunes that can rise above 150 metres. The colours change through the day, from soft gold in the morning to deep red at sunset, and the silence of the desert at night is something most travellers never forget.
Over 3 days and 2 nights, the itinerary balances time on the road with visits and moments to relax. Distances are planned so you arrive before dark whenever possible, and your driver is always ready to stop for a viewpoint, a coffee or a short walk.
Your camp has been chosen for its comfort and location: private tents with en-suite facilities, good food and attentive staff, all in the middle of the dunes.
