Your journey begins in Fes, one of the most culturally rich and historically significant cities in Morocco. After breakfast, leave your accommodation and set off towards the vast Sahara Desert. Traveling southeast, you’ll pass through varied landscapes, from fertile valleys to rugged mountains, offering breathtaking views along the way.

En route to Merzouga, your first stop is the charming town of Ifrane. A beautiful town in the Middle Atlas due to its Alpine-style architecture and lush greenery. Take a break here to admire the picturesque surroundings and perhaps enjoy a cup of tea before continuing your journey.

Next, venture into the Middle Atlas Mountains, passing cedar forests and Berber villages. With the chance to observe local wildlife such as Barbary macaques. Arrive in Midelt, a town nestled at the foot of the Atlas Mountains, where you’ll stop for lunch and soak up the tranquil ambiance.

Continuing south, cross the magnificent Ziz Valley, characterized by its lush palm groves and spectacular gorges. As you approach Merzouga, the landscape transforms into vast desert dunes, signaling your arrival at the gates of the Sahara.

Arriving in Merzouga, you will be greeted with traditional Moroccan hospitality and a hot cup of mint tea. Spend the evening relaxing and soaking up the serene desert atmosphere, with the option to embark on a camel trek through the dunes of Erg Chebbi to witness a breathtaking sunset in the desert. Finally, enjoy a delicious dinner under the stars before retiring to your comfortable accommodation for the night.

Day 2: Excursion to the Merzouga desert

Wake up to the soft glow of the desert sunrise illuminating the golden sands of the Sahara. After breakfast, explore the enchanting surroundings of Merzouga and immerse yourself in the unique culture and landscapes of the desert.

Start your desert adventure with a visit to a local Berber village, where you will have the opportunity to interact with the friendly locals and learn about their traditional way of life. Discover Berber customs, crafts and music while participating in cultural exchanges with your hosts.

Next, head to the captivating Miffis Mines, where you’ll learn about the region’s rich geological heritage and witness the fossil extraction process. Explore the mines and marvel at the range of fossilized treasures on display, gaining a deeper understanding of the ancient history of the Sahara.

Then, enjoy a leisurely camel trek through the heart of the Erg Chebbi dunes, where imposing sand dunes stretch as far as the eye can see. Feel the gentle sway of your camel’s gait as you pass through the fascinating desert landscape, with panoramic views extending in all directions.

As the sun begins to set, arrive at a traditional Berber camp nestled among the dunes, where you will spend the night under the starry desert sky. Savor a sumptuous dinner of authentic Moroccan cuisine, accompanied by traditional music and storytelling around the campfire. Finally, retreat to your comfortable Berber tent for a restful night’s sleep under the tranquil desert canopy.
