Itinerary

Your journey begins with a convenient pickup from your riad or hotel in Fes. We venture south, passing through the charming town of Ifrane, often referred to as the “Switzerland of Morocco,” and onward to Azrou, known for its lush cedar forests and the native Barbary apes.

We traverse the scenic Tizi Ntalghamt pass to reach Midelt and continue through the stunning Ziz Gorges, carved from volcanic rock. As we approach Errachidia, the landscape transforms, hinting at the desert ahead.

After a leisurely lunch, we drive through the picturesque Ziz Valley, reaching Erfoud, Rissani, and finally Merzouga. Upon arrival, enjoy a welcoming glass of mint tea before embarking on a camel ride into the heart of the Erg Chebbi dunes. This hour-and-a-half journey culminates at a well-equipped Berber camp. As night falls, relish a traditional dinner and gather around the campfire to enjoy the rhythm of Berber drums under a canopy of stars.

Awake early to witness a magical sunrise over the dunes. After a delicious breakfast and a refreshing hot shower at the camp, return to Merzouga by camel or 4WD. We then set off for Tinghir, a picturesque Berber village nestled among lush palm groves and distinctive houses.

Our journey continues to the impressive Todra Gorges, where towering rock walls reach heights of over 200 meters. After exploring the gorges, we proceed to the Dades Valley, renowned for its dramatic scenery and panoramic views of the Atlas Mountains. Enjoy a restful night in a charming riad within the valley.

On our final day, we travel through the scenic Dades Valley and the vibrant Valley of the Roses, arriving in Ouarzazate. Here, we explore the historic Kasbah of Taourirt before continuing to the iconic Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou. This UNESCO World Heritage site has served as the backdrop for numerous films, including “Lawrence of Arabia,” “The Sheltering Sky,” and “Babel.”

We then journey through the Tizi N-Tichka pass, taking in the breathtaking landscapes of the High Atlas Mountains. Our adventure concludes as we arrive in the bustling “Red City” of Marrakech, where you bid farewell to your guide, marking the end of your unforgettable 3 days tour from Fes to Marrakech.
