Start your 2-Day Desert Tour from Marrakech to Fes early with a 6:00 a.m. pick-up from your hotel or riad. Travel through the majestic High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi n’Tichka Pass (2,260m), enjoying scenic stops for panoramic views and picturesque Berber villages. Continue to the Ait Benhaddou Kasbah, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and filming location for legendary productions such as Gladiator and Game of Thrones. From there, journey to Ouarzazate, where you’ll explore the Taourirt Kasbah and the Atlas Film Studios. Proceed through the Rose Valley, Skoura palm grove, and Todra Valley, stopping for lunch along the way. By late afternoon, you’ll reach the mesmerizing Merzouga dunes, where camels await to take you on a sunset trek across the golden sands of Erg Chebbi. As night falls, settle into your luxury desert camp, enjoy a traditional Moroccan dinner, and experience Berber drumming beneath a sky full of stars.
Rise early to witness a spectacular sunrise over the dunes. After breakfast and a refreshing shower, return by camel or optional 4×4 to meet your driver. Travel north through the Ziz Valley, dotted with palm groves and dramatic rock formations. Pass through Errachidia and Midelt, where you’ll stop for lunch at a local restaurant. Continue across the Middle Atlas Mountains, stopping in the Cedar Forest of Azrou to observe playful Barbary monkeys, then pass through Ifrane, often called the Switzerland of Morocco.
