3 Days · From Marrakech
This 3-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.
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.
During these 3 days you will see how much the landscapes of Morocco change in a short time, from mountains and valleys to palm oases and desert plains, with very different ways of life in each region.
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.
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.
This tour can be combined with extra nights in Marrakech or Fes, other excursions or airport transfers. Just let us know in the message field of the booking form and we will build the perfect plan for you.
