Your adventure begins in the ancient city of Fes, known for its sprawling medina and rich cultural heritage. Departing from the city, we travel through the Middle Atlas Mountains, witnessing the scenic beauty of Ifrane, known as the “Switzerland of Morocco,” and Midelt, renowned for its minerals and apples.
As we approach Merzouga, the landscape unfolds into a vast expanse of golden sand. Here, the majestic Erg Chebbi dunes signal the start of your desert experience. Embark on a camel trek to witness the desert’s transformation at sunset and spend the night in a traditional Berber camp, under a canopy of stars.
Dedicate your second day to exploring the enchanting world of Merzouga and the Erg Chebbi dunes. Wake to a breathtaking sunrise and spend the day engaging with local communities, understanding their traditions, and venturing through the dunes. The second night in Merzouga allows for an in-depth experience of the desert’s tranquil beauty and mystical charm.
After immersing yourself in the desert’s serenity, we begin our journey toward the Dades Valley. Traverse the Rissani market, the Todra Gorges, and the Valley of a Thousand Kasbahs, each offering a unique perspective on Morocco’s natural and cultural tapestry. The Dades Valley, known for its towering cliffs and unique rock formations, provides a picturesque setting for the night.
Journey from the Dades Valley to Ouarzazate, a city famed for its film studios and ancient kasbahs. Explore the Taourirt Kasbah and the Atlas Film Studios, where many renowned movies were filmed. The city serves as a bridge between the desert and the mountains, offering a blend of history and cinematic intrigue.
On the final day, we ascend through the High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi n’Tichka pass en route to Marrakech. This scenic drive offers breathtaking views and a dramatic transition from the desert’s calm to the vibrant energy of Marrakech.
