Travel to Morocco – 3 Days from Marrakech to Fes via merzouga desert

First, we will take you up from your hotel/riad/bus station on this day and begin our adventure from Marrakech to Dades Gorges. Second, we’ll go over the Tizi-n-Tichka Atlas pass, with far-reaching vistas of the mountains, to Telouet, a typical High Atlas Berber settlement, and on to Ait Benhaddou, a beautiful fortified village and UNESCO World Heritage Site (Ksour). Finally, we’ll stop for lunch at Ait Benhaddou or Ouarzazate before continuing to Dades Valley, where we’ll spend the night in a riad/hotel.

To begin with, we’ll travel from DADES to Toudra gorges, Tenghir, after breakfast. Furthermore, Berber communities are interspersed along the path to the Sahara desert of Merzouga. We’ll proceed via Tinjdad, Jorf, and Erfoud, feeling the beginning of the Desert oasis of Tafilalet, before continuing to Merzouga, you will saddle your camel, supervised by an expert Camel rider to investigate the enigmatic Erg-Chebbi sand sea. Here, you will spend your first night in a typical Berber nomad tent or, if you’d choose, under the stars.

Your camel guide will then wake you up early the next morning to watch what might be the finest dawn of your life. Yet, you get to catch it well. After that, ride camels back to the hotel for breakfast and a shower. However, we will use the Tizi Ntalghamt pass to go to Midelt. Next, you will take a break for lunch in Zaida (barbecue with a glass of mint tea). Therefore, before reaching Fez, we will make a stop to take photographs of the wild monkeys in the cedar forests of Azrou. To sum up, we will drop you off at your lodging.
