This 3-day Marrakech-Merzouga-Fez tour takes you to the heart of authentic Morocco, between magnificent landscapes and fascinating cultural heritage. From the outset, you leave the hustle and bustle of Marrakech behind and head for the winding roads of the High Atlas Mountains. The Tizi n’Tichka Pass opens the doors to wild Morocco, dotted with Berber villages clinging to the mountainside. Along the way, you’ll visit the legendary Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a setting for famous films and a symbol of adobe architecture.
The Call of the Sahara: Golden Dunes and Starry Nights
On the second day, the landscape changes radically. You’ll cross the Dades Valley and the spectacular Todgha Gorge before reaching Merzouga, at the gateway to Erg Chebbi. Here, the Saharan experience begins: a camel ride at sunset takes you to your camp in the heart of the dunes. The evening takes place around a fire, punctuated by Berber drums and the deep calm of the desert. You will spend the night in a traditional nomadic tent or under the stars, in an atmosphere that is simple, warm, and magical.
From the Desert to the Imperial North: Discovering the Middle Atlas
On the third day, after an unforgettable sunrise over the dunes and a Saharan breakfast, you head north towards Fez. The journey takes you through yet another array of landscapes: oases, desert plateaus, isolated Berber villages, and cedar forests populated by monkeys. This gradual transition from desert to mountain gives you a sense of the diversity of Morocco in a single journey. You arrive in Fez at the end of the tour, your mind filled with images of the desert, the colors of the south, and deep emotions.
A short but powerful journey, etched in your memory between dunes, kasbahs, and vibrant cultures. End of Marrakech Merzouga Fez 3-Day Tour.
