Three Day Sahara Desert Expedition From Marrakech To The Majestic Erg Chebbi Sand Dunes


Embark on an unforgettable three day journey from Marrakech into the heart of the Moroccan Sahara. This immersive expedition takes you through the dramatic landscapes of the High Atlas Mountains, crossing the famous Tizi Ntichka pass. You will explore the UNESCO World Heritage site of Ait Ben Haddou, a historic fortified village that has served as a backdrop for numerous international film productions, offering a fascinating glimpse into the region's rich architectural and cinematic history.


The route continues through the scenic Valley of the Roses and the rugged Todra Gorge, where massive limestone cliffs tower over the river below. You will have the opportunity to visit traditional Berber villages, gaining insight into the local culture and lifestyle that has thrived in these arid environments for centuries. The journey is carefully paced to allow for multiple stops, ensuring you can fully appreciate the changing scenery and the unique geological formations along the way.


As you reach the golden sands of Erg Chebbi, the highlight of the trip awaits: a camel trek deep into the dunes. Experience the silence of the desert as you ride toward a traditional Berber campsite. Here, you will spend the night under a vast canopy of stars, enjoying authentic Moroccan hospitality and local cuisine. This magical evening in the desert provides a profound connection to the natural beauty and tranquility of the Sahara landscape.


Returning from the dunes, the tour offers a final opportunity to reflect on the immense scale of the Moroccan desert. From the lush oases of Tinghir to the stark beauty of the Kasbahs, this adventure covers the most iconic sights of the south. Whether you are a photography enthusiast or a culture seeker, this comprehensive three day tour provides a perfect balance of exploration, adventure, and relaxation, leaving you with lasting memories of Morocco's diverse and breathtaking terrain.

My wife and I booked the 3-day desert trip from Marrakech to Fes. Overall, we really enjoyed the experience, and Morocco is truly a beautiful country. There were several things we appreciated about the tour: What we liked: 1. Our driver was polite, professional, and very helpful throughout the journey. 2. The local tour guides at the various stops were engaging and fun. 3. The schedule was well-coordinated, and everything ran on time, including hotel check-ins and meeting points. 4. The accommodations provided were good and met our expectations. Areas that could be improved: 1. Lunch stops: We were always taken to specific restaurants that seemed to have preset arrangements with the tour. The menu options were very limited and overpriced for the quality. We wouldn’t have minded paying more if the food, service, or ambience justified the price, but they were consistently average or below average. 2. Itinerary coverage: Several places listed in the itinerary were either skipped or given very little time, for example, only about 10 minutes at the Dades Valley viewpoint and the Ouarzazate studio, and many stops on the Merzouga–Fes route were not made. We understand there are time constraints, but in that case, it would be better not to advertise stops that cannot be properly covered. 3. Vehicle comfort: The air-conditioning in the vehicle was not fully functional, as several vents were not working. Overall good experience.

I decided to take a chance with a local Morrocan company after reading they had been in business for a couple of decades. I was a bit nervous at first but I was very happy with the service. They sent Khalid who is very passionate about his country and very knowledgeable. 3 day and 2 nights to Merzouga, Dades Gorges and High Atlas, we spent another 3 nights visiting other beautiful cities of Morroco. Khalid was very kind and respectable and I would totally use him again for a private tour.

Our trip to the Moroccan desert was truly an unforgettable experience. The camel ride through the Sahara was the highlight of my journey. From the long, winding roads to climbing what felt like a stairway to heaven of Ait Ben Haddou under the blazing Moroccan sun, every moment was remarkable. Mustapha, our driver, guided us safely along the twisting paths of the Atlas Mountains, making the adventure both comfortable and memorable.
