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.
The camel trek is calm and suitable for most travellers. You can also walk next to the camels if you prefer, and stop on a high dune to watch the sunset or sunrise.
