Overview
There is nothing more authentic than making a trip from Marrakech to the nearest desert, the Zagora Desert. This is the perfect option to discover the desert in a short time trip (the excursion is a 2 days and one night trip). It is totally recommended for people who don't want to miss the experience of sleeping in an authentic Haima (tent) Berber with more confort than you would expect in a desert, ride a camel and enjoy the unforgettable event: the sunrise in the desert.
The tour covers the High Atlas Mountains, Ait Benhadou, Agdez and the beautiful Draa River Valley. It is a flexible tour and it will make stops to enjoy the different landscapes of the areas.
