Day 1: Fes – Atlas Mountains – Ziz Valley – Merzouga Desert (Approx. 465 km)

Your 3 Days Fes to Marrakech Desert Tour is an adventure of high order as it starts at an early time with the pickup at your Fes Riad. We head at once southward, rising up into the coolness of the Middle Atlas Mountains. We make a stop at Ifrane, next to the Switland of Morocco, and spend some time at the Cedar Forest of Azrou where you may see the naughty Barbary Macaques. Thereupon we drive into the Ziz Valley with its dramatic scenic lushness, halting at a truly breathtaking panorama of the vast snake-like palm oasis, down below.
Visitors will frequently mention to us that the landscape change on this day is like going over three separate nations! It is the end of the afternoon when you finally arrive in Merzouga, the entrance to the Sahara. In this case, your Morocco Desert Trip starts with the meeting with your camel guide. You are riding your camel right into the dunes of the Erg Chebbi the sun is setting in a magnificent sunset staining the sands in the brightest colors of orange and rose. You will have a night in a remote, desirable Luxury Trip To Morocco camp, preparing to dine under an unbelievable amount of stars.
Moreover, you will still recall how the smell of pine needles in Azrou forest was soon replaced by the dry and immense heat of the south. When the camel trek begins and the sound in the medina is gone then the Saharan peace really begins.

Day 2: Merzouga – Todgha Gorges – Dades Valley (Approx. 302 km)

You have to be up early enough to see the actually magical Sahara sunrise beyond the dunes which has been quoted as the highlight of any Morocco Desert Tours. Then, after a wonderful breakfast at your luxury camp you ride your camel (or 4×4) back to Merzouga. We start by going to the dramatic and colossal canyons of the Todgha Gorges. We take a break in Rissani, which is an old Saharan marketplace. then you wander in the shade of the sheer and high limestone cliffs of the Todgha Gorges–the air cool and fresh dropping on the riverbed.
Next, we go to the picturesque Dades Valley, the Valley of a Thousand Kasbahs, with its peculiar geological features and lovely and fertile strip of green along the river. On this day, you can see that there is such a great variety of nature that is right next to deep desert. You take dinner and a good night in an attractive Dades Valley Riad.
The immense size of the Gorges is quite disgraceful, the cliffs are appallingly near and high. I particularly like the monkey fingers rock formations within the Dades Valley which is a peculiar attraction during all Fes desert tours.

Day 3: Dades Valley – Ait Benhaddou – High Atlas – Marrakech (Approx. 330 km)

On the last day of this rigorous 3 Days Fes to Marrakech Desert Tour, you will be riding along the magnificent Road of a Thousand Kasbahs. We go through the Valley of Roses with its annual rose festival, and the immense palm grove of Skoura. We then stop by Ouarzazate, the Hollywood of Africa and make a brief visit to the film studios. More importantly, we will visit the UNESCO World Heritage site of Ait Benhaddou, an ancient fortified village, a grandiose, beautiful place that has been the backdrop of numerous films and a place that is definitely on the bucket list of any Desert Tour Morocco.
Lunch comes after which we start our final ascending journey over the high Atlas Mountains through the Tizi n-Tichka Pass (2,260m). The views at this panorama are amazing. It is in the late afternoon that you come to the bustling energy of Marrakech and end the amazing trip.
The golden color of Ait Benhaddou and blue sky is indeed Hollywood like; one feels as though he/she is in an ancient movie scene. The Tizi n Tichka Pass gives you one last beautiful image of the old and rugged mountains at the time you get to Marrakech.
