Overview
The Erg Chebbi dunes are a long drive from Marrakech. Say no to public buses and yes to this great-value small-group tour, with overnight in a desert camp and camel safari in the Sahara. See the Ksar of Aït-Ben-Haddou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site; stroll through the red mud alleys of the Taourirt Kasbah (own expense); and spend the night in the Dades gorges. Your tour includes transfers and half-board accommodation.

What to expect
Day 1: From Marrakech to the Dades Valley via the Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou and Ouarzazate
High Atlas Mountains
1h
The Atlas separates Atlantic and Mediterranean Morocco from Saharan Morocco.
The Tichka pass is the highest in Morocco, at 2260m, the road is snow-covered in winter and the stone and adobe houses of the villages cling to the sides of the mountain.
Ait Ben Haddou
1h
The Ksar of Aït-Ben-Haddou illustrates the traditional earthen habitat, representative of South Moroccan culture, which has become vulnerable under the effect of irreversible socio-economic and cultural changes.
Dades Gorges
12h · Admission ticket included
A charming center and a traditional Berber architecture with its earthen habitats. The valley could indeed represent a beautiful base off the beaten track and the relative absence of tourists will allow you to experience authentic Moroccan hospitality, far from the harassment of big cities.
Day 2: From the Dades gorges to the Merzouga desert via the 1001 roads of the Kasbah and the oasis of Tinghir
Todra Gorge
1h · Admission ticket included
15 km from the center of Tinghir, the gateway to the High Atlas, the villages of Tamtatoucht and Imilchil, the Todra gorges, high limestone cliffs that seem like a fault carved by the Todra wadi for millennia, impress by their spectacular sheer plunging down to the bed of the river.
With peaks that rise up to 300 meters above the Todra which winds from its source in the High Atlas Mountains, the Todra Gorges occupy a primordial place in the valley
Merzouga Desert
12h · Admission ticket included
Merzouga is a small Moroccan town located in the Sahara Desert, near the Algerian border. Merzouga opens onto Erg Chebbi, a huge expanse of sand dunes north of the city. To the west is Dayet Srji, a seasonal salt lake, often dry in summer. When it fills up again, it attracts a wide variety of migratory and desert birds, including warblers, nightjars and, occasionally, flamingos.
Day 3: From the Merzouga desert to Marrakech via Ouarzazat & Kasbah Taourirt
Taourirt Kasbah
1h · Admission ticket included
The Taourirt Kasbah was built in the 17th century by the Glaoui tribe. It is famous thanks to its seniority. Indeed, it was one of the first great Berber architectures built!
Jemaa el-Fnaa
30m · Admission ticket included
you arrive at the place of jemaa el fna
