Overview

Zagora Desert Tour from Marrakech is your choice to discover the sand dunes in the city of Zagora, passing through the High Atlas Mountains and on Tizi n’Tichka (2260m), the views of the valleys and Berber villages perched on the hillsides of the mountain, hardly distinguishable from the mountains themselves, are spectacular.

After crossing the pass you continue to descend until reaching Ouarzazate where you stop for lunch. In the afternoon you cross another smaller passage Tizi n Tinififte before reaching the head of the Draa Valley in Agdez. We go to the road along the old road of the caravan between the mountains and the river passing many villages and gardens so that you can better know the lifestyle of the oases.

You will then reach Zagora and the dunes where you will have a Camel Ride to watch the sunset and dine in the dunes at the Bivouac of the nomad tents where you will spend the night.
