Your fes to marrakech desert tour 4 days starts with an early pickup from either the airport or your hotel in Fes. We
head south through Imouzzer to visit Ifrane, a town renowned for its chilly weather, snow, and alpine-style homes, earning
it the nickname the “Switzerland of Morocco.” Next, we explore the cedars forest, home to the playful Barbary macaques.
You can feed them as we stroll through the woods. The journey continues to Midelt for lunch. From there, we drive to the
Sahara Desert via the Tizi-n-Tilghmt pass and alongside the Ziz River.
By afternoon, we arrive at the majestic Merzouga Sahara. Here, you’ll switch to camels for a trek across the sand dunes.
Stop atop a towering dune to witness a breathtaking sunset. Then, continue to a luxury desert camp where you can enjoy
Berber drum music and dance around a campfire under a sky full of stars. Dinner and overnight stay are at the camp.
Wake up early to catch the awe-inspiring sunrise in the desert. After breakfast, return by camel to Merzouga where your
driver awaits. Today, we explore Merzouga, an area rich with sand dunes, a wild lake, historical mines, fossil sites, and
stunning oases, perfect for various outdoor activities.
We start with an off-road trip to an ancient eyeliner mine, followed by a visit to nomads living in traditional woven tents.
Enjoy a cup of Berber tea while learning about their lifestyle. Next, we visit Khamlia village to experience Gnaoua music and
dance, with roots tracing back to Mali, Sudan, and Niger. After lunch, we stroll through a palm grove and visit Merzouga’s
wild lake, known for its flamingos. Dinner and an overnight stay are at a hotel.
After breakfast, we leave the desert for Rissani, a historic trading hub, especially lively on market days—Tuesdays,
Thursdays, and Sundays. After a visit to Rissani’s bustling market, we head to Erfoud to explore a fossilized marble
workshop. We journey through the palm groves of Touroug and Tinjdad to reach the Todra Gorges. These cliffs, carved by
the Todra River, form a dramatic canyon ideal for rock climbing. Feel free to wander and soak in the scenery. After lunch,
we proceed to the Dades Valley through Boumalne Dades, with stops at the unique “monkey fingers” rock formations and
a viewpoint overlooking the valley. Dinner and overnight stay are at a hotel.

Skoura to Ouarzazate, known as the “gateway to the desert,” where acclaimed films were made.
