The 3-day Sahara Desert tour starts with an early morning pick-up from your accommodation in Marrakech to drive through the enchanting High Atlas Mountains through the Tizi’n Tichka Pass (2260 m). Where we will have stops for breathtaking panoramic views. After that, we will continue the drive to reach the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ait Benhadou Kasbah for the visit. The Kasbah is used as a filming location for several movies and TV shows including “Gladiator” and “Game of Thrones”. Then we will drive through Ouarzazate and the Valley of Roses to finally reach Boumalne Dades where you will spend the night.
On this second day, we will continue the road through the Dades Valley to enjoy the beautiful landscape; after that, we will cross the city of Tinghir to visit the great canyon of Todra which is another spectacular point. After that, we will have free time for lunch Tinjdad. After lunch, we will return to the car to continue the journey. In the afternoon, we reach the Sahara desert where you will switch to camels and cross the sand dunes with a stop in the middle of nowhere to enjoy the sunset from the top of the sand dunes. Finally, you will reach your luxury camp for the night.
Today you will wake up early to admire the beautiful sunrise from the sand dune located near your camp; then you will come back to have breakfast and join the car for the road to Fez.
The road is a bit long today but we will try to make it easier by making interesting stops for photos and rest; after the Ziz Valley, the lunch stop will be in Midelt (the apple capital of Morocco). After lunch, you will cross Ifrane (Switzerland of Morocco) to finally arrive in Fez. We drop you off at your accommodation.
