Full description

Go on a captivating 3-day journey through diverse landscapes as you travel from Marrakech to Fez. Explore the High Atlas Mountains, Sahara Desert, and vibrant cities along the way. ✅Day 1: Marrakech - Ait Ben Haddou - Dades Begin your journey by crossing the High Atlas Mountains past one Berber village after another to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ait Ben Haddou. This village is famous for its kasbah and fortified village and has been used as a set for some famous Hollywood epics and magazine photo shoots. After some leisure time, enjoy lunch in a local restaurant and continue your drive through Ouarzazate, known as the Gate of the Sahara. Continue to Boumalne Dades, admiring the scenic drive along the Dades Valley, where you can enjoy dinner and rest for the night at the hotel. ✅Day 2: Dades - Todgha Gorges - Merzouga Following breakfast, depart from your hotel and drive to Tinghir and its dramatic Todgha Gorges, pausing for some free time to explore the canyons. Enjoy lunch at a local cafe and continue to Merzouga to meet your camel caravan. Experience the Erg Chebbi dunes on camelback and watch the sunset. Reach your desert camp before nightfall and enjoy an authentic Moroccan dinner under the stars. Local nomads will provide entertainment and show you how to play the traditional Tam Tam drums. Enjoy dinner and an overnight stop. ✅Day 3: Trip from Merzouga to Fes Wake up before sunrise and climb the sand dunes early with your camera. This place offers great spots for beautiful pictures. Before we drive to Fes, you can shower and have breakfast at the hotel of the desert camp. The trip to Fes is quite long, on the way we see great locations like Erfoud, the Ziz valley, and Midelt during the trip. Midelt is a perfect town to have lunch in before continuing the journey. Once we get to Azrou, you have a great chance to see the Berber monkey groups in the cedar forest. Before we actually reach Fes, we drive to Ifrane. Ifrane is locally known as “Little Switzerland”, a winter ski area, built in a beautiful style by the French.
