Travel plan - 3 days

Get ready for an extraordinary adventure! We leave the comfort of our hotel or riad in Marrakech to embark on an exciting journey through the picturesque Dades Valley. We will venture along the Tizi-n-Tichka mountain pass in the fascinating Atlas Mountains. Along the way, we will pause to admire the breathtaking views and capture these moments with some souvenir photos.

We will pass through charming Ouarzazate and then stop to visit the famous Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This fascinating place, which has been the backdrop for numerous epic films such as Lawrence of Arabia, Gladiator, and Alexander, will make you feel as if you have entered another era.

After a delicious lunch on site, we will continue our journey, immersing ourselves in the natural beauty of the surrounding landscapes. We will visit historical monuments such as the Kasbah of Taourirt in Ouarzazate and the Valley of Roses, renowned for its lush rose plantations and annual flower festival held every May.

Our adventure will continue through the picturesque Berber villages of Skoura and El Kelaa M’Gouna, finally reaching Boumalene Dades, where we will rest and spend the night. This trip is more than just a tour; it is an experience to be lived and remembered. Join us for a day full of discovery and wonder!

Get ready for an unforgettable trip! From Boumalene Dades, we will set out for Merzouga, home of the famous Erg Chebbi dunes, the highest and most spectacular in Morocco. Our route will take us through the enchanting Berber village of Tinghir, and then into the Todra Gorge, with its towering rocky mountains touching 600 meters above sea level.

After our visit to Todra, we will continue our journey through a series of picturesque Berber villages, such as Tinjdad. Here we will have the opportunity to take a break for lunch, but if time permits, we may decide to continue on to Rissani. This is the home of Berber flatbread, a local delicacy filled with meat and vegetables, a real treat for the palate!

Upon arriving in Merzouga, we will leave our bulkier luggage in the hotel’s security rooms, preparing for the most exciting experience of all: the Sahara! We will board a dromedary for a 90-minute walk through the beautiful dunes of Erg Chebbi until we arrive at our Berber camp.

Here we will experience the essence of nomadism, sharing the spirit and lifestyle of the local people. We will have three Berber tents at our disposal, complete with restaurant and kitchen, offering all the basic services to ensure you have a comfortable stay. The tents are well equipped with mattresses, blankets and pillows.

After a delicious dinner, we will gather around the fire to immerse ourselves in the magic of the desert night, to the rhythm of traditional Berber drums and under a starry sky of incomparable beauty. Join us on this adventure, it will be an experience you will carry in your heart forever!

Get ready to greet the sunrise in the heart of the Sahara! We will wake up before dawn to admire the first rays of sunlight illuminating the dunes, giving us an unforgettable spectacle and an opportunity to take breathtaking photos. After this wonderful experience, we will venture back on the backs of our camels, heading to the hotel for an invigorating shower and a nutritious breakfast before resuming our journey to Fez.

As we leave Merzouga behind us, our route will take us through the charming villages of Arfoud and Errachidia, the picturesque Ziz valley, to the lush forests of Medelt, Azrou and Ifrane. If luck is with us, we might even cross paths with Atlas monkey families!

In the middle of our journey, we will stop for a restorative lunch at one of the many cozy restaurants along the way. After regaining our strength, we will resume our journey, finally arriving at our riad or hotel in Fez, where we will conclude our fascinating three-day tour.

We hope that this trip gave you unforgettable moments and that you were able to discover and appreciate all that Morocco has to offer. We look forward to welcoming you back on one of our adventures, to explore other wonderful corners of this fascinating country together!
