In the afternoon, continue to Ouarzazate, known as “Hollywood of Africa,” with an option to visit the Atlas Film Studios or Taourirt Kasbah. Your day concludes with a picturesque drive through the “Valley of Roses” to the Dades Valley, famous for its dramatic rock formations and lush groves. Here, you’ll check into your guesthouse, enjoy a delicious Moroccan dinner, and relax after a day of incredible sights.
Today is the day you reach the Sahara Desert for a truly magical experience! After breakfast, explore more of the Dades Gorges before continuing to the impressive Todra Gorges, a magnificent canyon with towering walls. You can take a walk along the riverbed, soaking in its grandeur. Your journey then passes through various Berber villages and palm groves, driving through towns like Erfoud, known for its fossils, and Rissani, a traditional market town. Upon arrival in Merzouga, the gateway to the Erg Chebbi dunes, you’ll meet your camel caravan. Embark on an unforgettable camel trek deep into the golden Erg Chebbi dunes, witnessing a spectacular Sahara sunset. You’ll then reach your luxury desert camp, nestled amidst the dunes, where you’ll enjoy a delicious traditional dinner under the vast, star-filled sky, experience authentic Berber music around a campfire, and spend the night in comfortable, private tents. This is the highlight of your Marrakech to Fes desert tour 3 days.
