4 Days · From Marrakech
This 4-day desert trip from Marrakech to Fes is built around the Erg Chebbi dunes of Merzouga and the medina of Fes. It is designed for travellers who want a real feel of Morocco without worrying about logistics. You will be looked after from pick-up to drop-off by a team that lives in the region and knows its roads, its villages and its best viewpoints.
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.
The dunes of Erg Chebbi near Merzouga are the most famous in Morocco. Small villages, palm gardens and nomad tents surround the sand, and the views from the top of a dune at sunrise make the early start more than worth it.
Fes is the spiritual and cultural capital of Morocco. Its medina is one of the largest car-free urban areas in the world, full of artisans, old madrasas, fountains and the famous leather tanneries.
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.
Riding a camel into the dunes is one of the classic Sahara experiences. Our camel handlers lead the caravan at a calm pace, giving you time to enjoy the shapes of the sand and the changing light before you reach camp.
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.
