Step by Step

This 3-day tour is perfect for those who want to explore the best of southern Morocco without worrying about logistics. From Marrakech, you will travel in a small group to the Merzouga desert, crossing the Atlas Mountains via the Tizi N'Tichka pass. On the way you will visit an argan oil cooperative and the famous Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the setting for films such as Gladiator and The Jewel of the Nile.

On the first night, you will spend the night in a mountain hotel in the Dades Valley, surrounded by arid landscapes and imposing gorges. The next day, you will continue to the Todra Gorges, stopping in traditional villages such as Erfoud and Rissani. Finally you will arrive in Merzouga, where camels will be waiting for you to cross the dunes and reach the luxury bivouac.

At the Sahara camp, you will enjoy a night with traditional dinner, Berber music, comfortable beds and a private bathroom with shower. You will also have time for sandboarding and watching the sunset or sunrise over golden dunes.

On the last day, you will return to Marrakech, crossing desert landscapes, oases and mountains.

    The sandboarding went badly and I ended up full of sand, but we had a good laugh.
