About this trip
This trip takes you from Marrakech across the High Atlas Mountains to the dunes near Merzouga, tracing a route that pairs mountain scenery with the open Sahara.
You'll spend a night in the mountains, staying in simple local huts, before continuing on to desert life in Merzouga, where you share Berber hospitality and traditions.
It's a private, partially guided trip, so the pace is easy and the experience feels personal rather than scripted.
