3 Days tour from Merzouga Desert from Marrakech
Tour Details :
Your adventure begins with a professional pick-up from your Marrakech hotel or riad, as we depart the vibrant city for a scenic drive across the majestic High Atlas Mountains. You will traverse the legendary Tizi n’Tichka pass, reaching a staggering elevation of 2,260 meters (7,415 ft), where you can enjoy breathtaking panoramic views and frequent photo opportunities of ancient Berber villages perfectly camouflaged within the rugged mountainside.
Your cultural and cinematic exploration continues at the iconic Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou, a striking UNESCO World Heritage Site that has served as a premier filming location for Hollywood blockbusters such as Gladiator, The Mummy, and Game of Thrones. You will have ample time to explore the historic earthen architecture and hike to the hilltop for a stunning 360-degree view of the region. Following a traditional lunch at the Kasbah, we continue to Ouarzazate, known as the “Gate of the Sahara” and Morocco’s celebrated cinematic hub.
The journey then leads you through the fragrant landscapes of the Valley of the Roses toward Boumalne Dades. You will explore the scenic “back roads” of the Dades Valley, witnessing unique geological rock formations and majestic fortified Kasbahs lining the Dades River. Your day concludes with a relaxing evening meal and boutique overnight accommodation nestled directly within the dramatic Dades Canyons.
Following a traditional breakfast at your hotel, we depart the dramatic Dades Gorges to begin our journey toward the majestic Erg Chebbi, home to Morocco’s highest and most iconic sand dunes. This route offers a captivating transition from rugged canyon landscapes to the vast expanse of the Sahara. Following the Path of the Berbers, you will traverse ancient trade routes, passing through authentic Berber villages and the historic desert towns of Tinjdad and Erfoud, a region renowned for its fossil-rich geology. You will also have the chance to marvel at the sprawling greenery of the Tafilalet Oasis, one of the world’s largest and most significant desert oases.
Upon your Merzouga arrival, you will enjoy a period of refreshment and relaxation in this gateway village before your desert immersion truly begins. As the day cools, you will embark on a guided camel caravan across the rolling orange dunes, providing the perfect opportunity to capture professional-grade photographs of the enchanting Saharan sunset. Your journey culminates in an unforgettable night at an exclusive Berber luxury camp, where you will dine on gourmet Moroccan cuisine before retiring to a premium, well-appointed tent under a glittering canopy of stars.
Your final morning in the desert begins with the breathtaking sight of a spectacular Sahara sunrise casting its first light over the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi. Following this magical experience, you will enjoy a serene camel trek back to the village of Merzouga, where you can refresh with a hot shower and savor an authentic traditional Moroccan breakfast. Our expedition then continues into the Atlas Foothills, taking you through the rugged heart of the Anti-Atlas mountain range and the historic Berber settlements of Alnif and Tazarine. You will be captivated by the lush beauty of the Draa Valley, a region celebrated for its vast palm groves, ancient Kasbahs, and the winding Draa River—the longest in Morocco. After a full day of diverse landscapes and cultural discovery, you will arrive in the "Hollywood of Africa," Ouarzazate, to enjoy a relaxing evening stay in this cinematic city.
After enjoying a delicious breakfast at your hotel, the final day of your comprehensive Morocco desert expedition begins with an immersive dive into the world of cinema. We explore the legendary Atlas Film Studios in Ouarzazate, one of the largest and most prestigious movie studios in the world, where you can walk through the original sets of iconic international films and series.
Your scenic journey back to Marrakech begins as we ascend the majestic High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi n’Tichka Pass, the highest paved road pass in North Africa. Reaching a staggering altitude of 2,260 meters, this route offers unparalleled vistas of deep, verdant valleys and rugged mountain peaks. The drive provides a final look at the authentic Berber heritage, with traditional mountain villages perched precariously on the hillsides, offering a fascinating glimpse into a lifestyle that has remained unchanged for centuries. As we descend the mountains, we arrive back in the vibrant city of Marrakech in the early evening, where we will provide a seamless drop-off at your riad or hotel, marking the official conclusion of your unforgettable Saharan odyssey.

What out Customers Say About us
Posted on Nikita LikhachevVerified Engaging expert in Berber culture We went for a 4 hours walking tour of ancient Marrakech with Mustafa. He knows history well and talk engaging but not overdetailed stories of old. He knows city well and can plan a trip to your specific time and location options. Time wall spent well — we wouldn't get the same experience ourselves, and also with a guide the Medina of Marrakech felt safer. Would recommend to anyone.Posted on AnaVerified Perfect Excellent treatment from the guide, his professionalism and kindness. We loved the Ben Youssef Madrassa. Thank you very much Mustapha.Posted on ZackVerified Recommend for a great trip Mustafa and his brother Youssef organized an amazing 7 day trip for us very last minute. Mustafa is very knowledgeable about the country and is very hospitable. Everything was easy, and we had a private driver named Hamza (Mustafa’s nephew) who was always available for take us where we needed.
