Itinerary

Day 1:Fes – Middle Atlas – Merzouga Desert

Your desert adventure begins with an early morning departure from Fes, heading south through Morocco’s stunning Middle Atlas region. The journey takes you through Ifrane, often called “Little Switzerland” for its alpine architecture, before continuing to the cedar forests near Azrou where Barbary macaques roam freely among ancient trees.

After lunch in the mountain town of Midelt, known for its apple orchards and mining heritage, the landscape gradually transforms as you descend into the Ziz Valley. Palm groves and traditional ksour settlements dot this verdant oasis, offering your first glimpse of Morocco’s desert regions. By evening, you’ll arrive in Merzouga, where the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi create a dramatic backdrop for your comfortable lodge accommodation.

Day 2:Merzouga – Erg Chebbi Desert Camp

This day is dedicated to exploring the enchanting Merzouga region and its fascinating desert culture. Begin with a visit to the village of Khamlia, where you’ll meet Gnawa musicians and enjoy traditional tea while learning about their unique musical heritage. The afternoon brings desert adventures including fossil hunting and exhilarating dune exploration.

As the sun begins its descent, your camel caravan awaits for the highlight of your Morocco desert experience. Trek across the shifting sands of Erg Chebbi as the dunes transform through spectacular color changes, culminating in a breathtaking sunset from atop a towering sand peak. Your luxury desert camp becomes home for the night, complete with traditional dinner under the stars and mesmerizing Berber drumming sessions.

Day 3:Merzouga – Todgha Gorges – Dades Valley

Rise early to witness a spectacular Sahara sunrise painting the dunes in brilliant hues before returning by camel to meet your driver. Your route today leads through Rissani, the spiritual birthplace of Morocco’s current ruling dynasty, where bustling date markets showcase the region’s most prized agricultural products.

Continue to Tinghir and the magnificent Todgha Gorges, where limestone cliffs soar 400 meters above a crystal-clear river. Walk through these narrow canyons and visit traditional Berber villages where locals maintain centuries-old farming practices. The journey concludes in the Dades Valley, famous for its dramatic rock formations and scenic kasbahs, where you’ll spend the night in comfortable accommodation overlooking this geological wonderland.
