This area is famous for its green date palm trees and beautiful views. In the afternoon, we will reach Merzouga. You will go on a camel ride to see the sunset over the tall Erg Chebbi dunes. This magical ride takes you to a luxury desert camp. You can have a traditional Moroccan dinner under the stars and enjoy Berber music around the campfire.

Next, we visit Erfoud, famous for its fossil workshops, before continuing to the spectacular Todra Gorges, where towering red cliffs create an ideal spot for exploration and photos.

If you only have a few days and want to see the Sahara Desert, this 3-day Fes to Marrakech desert tour is perfect. We saw so much quickly, from Ait Ben Haddou to the Skoura Palm Grove. The highlight was the camel ride in Merzouga, where we watched the sunset over the dunes. The desert camp was luxurious, with cozy tents and great food. Our driver was super friendly and made sure we had plenty of time to enjoy each stop. This tour is a fantastic way to experience Moroccan beauty!
