Itinerary

Day 1 - Marrakech – High Atlas – Ait Benhaddou – Ouarzazate – Rose Valley

Meet your group at 7:30 AM at your Marrakech hotel or at Café France in the medina for a smooth pickup in air-conditioned transport. Travel through the scenic High Atlas Mountains, stopping for photos and a coffee in small Berber villages. Cross the Tizi n’Tichka Pass (2260m) for amazing views, then explore the famous 17th-century Ait Benhaddou Kasbah (featured in Gladiator). After lunch in Ouarzazate, continue through Rose Valley to Kelaat M’Gouna or Tinghir. Enjoy dinner and overnight at a charming riad.

Day 2 - Tinghir – Todgha Gorges – Merzouga Dunes

After breakfast, leave Tinghir and journey toward the Sahara. Stop at the stunning Todgha Gorges, where 300-meter cliffs rise above a lush palm-filled valley—perfect for a short walk with an optional local guide. Continue to Merzouga and pack a small overnight bag for a 1-hour camel trek (or 4×4 ride for €20) across the golden Erg Chebbi dunes. At the luxury desert camp, enjoy sunset views from the highest dune, followed by a delicious dinner (vegan/vegetarian options available). End the night under the stars with Berber music and a cozy stay in nomad tents.

This 3-day desert tour changed my life. Watching the sunrise over the endless dunes while riding a camel felt like stepping into a dream I never wanted to wake from. The quiet beauty of the Sahara, the warmth of the Berber campfire, and the genuine kindness of the guides touched my heart deeply. Every moment was filled with wonder and connection — to the land, the culture, and my fellow travelers. If you want more than just a trip, if you want a soul-stirring adventure that stays with you forever, don’t hesitate—book this journey. Morocco will embrace you in ways you never imagined.
