Marrakech – Ouarzazate – Tinghir
Ait Ben Haddou - Begin your tour with a morning pickup from your Marrakech accommodation and journey into the High Atlas Mountains in a comfortable, air-conditioned minivan. Travel along the Tizi-n-Tichka pass, passing by rural Berber villages where local shepherds tend to their flocks as they have for millennia. Your first stop is the UNESCO World Heritage site of Aït Benhaddou kasbah, a historic meeting point for locals and travelers to socialize and trade. Take your time to absorb the atmosphere before continuing with your guide to Ouarzazate for lunch at a local cafe (at your own expense). In the afternoon, proceed with your guide to the Skoura oasis. Take a moment to admire the lush, green palm trees that appear like a mirage in the arid desert, then continue along the Dadès River through deep gorges, where ancient kasbah ruins are nestled among traditional Berber villages. Arrive in Tinghir in the evening, where dinner and accommodation await you. Overnight: Hôtel Bougafer Tinghir.
Tinghir – Merzouga – Erg Chebbi
Erg Chebbi Dunes - After breakfast at your hotel, board your minivan and travel along the renowned ‘Road of 1000 Kasbahs’ to nearby Tinghir. Walk through the oasis to the impressive Todra Gorge, where a deep crevasse in the orange limestone offers breathtaking views. Enjoy lunch at your leisure (at your own expense) in one of the local cafes. In the afternoon, visit the sacred town of Rissani — the birthplace of Morocco’s ruling royal family and the ancient capital of the Tafilalet region. Continue to Merzouga, a small village on the edge of the Sahara Desert. Meet your camel caravan and, as the sun sets, journey towards Erg Chebbi and your desert camp. Enjoy dinner and an evening under the stars with traditional music from local nomads before retiring for the night. Overnight: campsite in the Sahara Desert.
Merzouga - Draa valley - Ouarzazate
Exploring the Atlas mountains - Start your day with an optional early-morning walk to watch the sunrise over the sand dunes before breakfast.
