About this trip
This is a three-day overland route between Fes and Marrakech, built around a night in the Sahara. You cross the Middle Atlas Mountains on day one, ride camels into the dunes of Erg Chebbi, and sleep out in a desert camp under the stars.
From there the route continues over the High Atlas Mountains toward Marrakech, taking in Todra Canyon and the Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah along the way. It's guided throughout and run as a private trip, so it's just you (and anyone travelling with you) and your guide.
Expect long stretches of driving between the mountains and the desert, balanced by the stillness of the dunes at night.
What you'll do
- Ride camels across the dunes of Erg Chebbi
- Spend a night in a desert camp in Merzouga
- Watch sunset and sunrise over the Sahara
- See Barbary macaques in the cedar forest near Azrou
- Walk through Todra Canyon
- Visit the Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah
- Private and fully guided, so the pace can flex to suit your group
- Involves long driving days crossing both the Middle and High Atlas Mountains
- Only one night is spent in the desert, so it's a fairly fast introduction to the Sahara rather than an extended stay
