Step by Step

This 3-day tour is perfect for those who want to explore the Merzouga desert from Marrakech and take advantage of the journey to discover some of Morocco's most impressive landscapes. Starting early in the morning, the route enters the High Atlas Mountains, crossing the spectacular Tizi n'Tichka pass, one of the most famous mountain passes in the country.

On the first day, one of the main attractions of the trip is a visit to Ait Ben Haddou, one of Morocco's most emblematic kasbahs and a place full of history and charm. Afterwards, the tour continues to Tinghir, where you will spend the night in a hotel and enjoy dinner, surrounded by the beauty of the Moroccan south.

On the second day, after breakfast, the excursion continues to the impressive Todra Gorges, a natural enclave that surprises with its rocky walls and unique landscape. Later you will arrive in Merzouga, where one of the most awaited experiences of the trip begins: the sunset camel ride through the desert dunes.

The adventure continues with a very special night in a Berber camp, where you can dine, relax under a sky full of stars and live an authentic Sahara experience. At dawn on the third day, you will enjoy the desert again with another camel ride before heading back to Marrakech.

This is an intense and very complete getaway, designed for those who want to make the most of their time and discover mountains, kasbahs, oases, gorges and desert in a single trip. An ideal option for travellers looking for an authentic, varied experience, full of memorable moments.
