Enjoy an unforgettable experience by spending a night in a traditional haima in the middle of the desert on this 2-day trip to the desert of Merzouga, which ends in Marrakech.

Merzouga Desert 2-Day Trip

Day 1: Fez - Ifrane - Azrou - Erfoud - Merzouga

After meeting in Fez, we will cross the Middle Atlas Mountains, passing through Ifrane and Azrou. We will continue through the Ziz Valley and Ziz Gorges to Erfoud, where we'll begin our desert journey to Merzouga. In the evening, we'll ride camels to our camp, enjoy a traditional dinner, and experience the Moroccan desert at night.

Day 2: Merzouga - Rissani - Alni - Tizi N'Tfrkhin - Ouarzazate - Marrakech

We will wake up early to watch the sunrise in the Erg Chebbi desert. Afterward, we will ride camels to a hotel for breakfast and shower (depending on the selected camp). Our journey to Marrakech will take us through Tafilalet's palm grove and Rissani, the origin of the Alaouite dynasty. We will navigate the Anti Atlas mountain range and visit Tinghir and the Dades Valley. Around noon, we will stop in Klaat M'Gouna for traditional Moroccan cuisine before continuing to Marrakech, arriving around 8:30 pm.

Alternative to Camel Ride On Day 2

It's possible to forgo the camel ride from Erg Chebbi to the camp and instead use a 4x4, which incurs an additional fee of €65 payable on-site.

Camps

This tour features two types of camps: standard rooms with communal showers and superior rooms with private bathrooms and showers in the camp. Haimas are available in double, triple, or family configurations.
