About This Experience

Discover Morocco in 3 Unforgettable Days! Dare to Explore the Magical Deserts and Valleys

Join us for a 3-day tour from Marrakech to Merzouga with Caravane Du Grand Erg. Begin your journey in Marrakech and traverse the Atlas Mountains via Tizi n’Tichka. Visit the Kasbah of Telouet, then continue through the Ounila Valley to the Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou. Explore the Dades Valley and Tinghir Oasis.

Enjoy a camel ride, sandboarding, and optional quad biking at sunset over the Erg Chebbi dunes, and spend the night at a traditional Bedouin camp. This tour provides a well-rounded experience of Morocco’s landscapes and cultural highlights.

Day 1 : Marrakech → Atlas Mountains → Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou → Dades Valley ( 6 Hours Drive)

Begin your day with a pickup at 8:00 AM from your accommodation in Marrakech. Travel through the stunning High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi-N-Tichka pass, reaching an elevation of 2,260 meters. Enjoy panoramic views of Berber villages and the landscape. Continue with a visit to the historical Kasbah of Telouet and the scenic Ounila Valley. Have lunch at Ait Ben Haddou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its impressive adobe architecture. In the afternoon, explore Ouarzazate, known as the Moroccan Hollywood, with an optional visit to film studios where famous movies have been filmed. End your day with travel to the Dades Valley, passing through the Valley of Roses and the "Road of a Thousand Kasbahs." Arrive in the Dades Valley for an overnight stay, concluding the first day of your 3-day tour from Marrakech to Merzouga.

Day 2 : Boumalne Dades → Tinghir → Merzouga → Sahara Desert ( 4 Hours Drive )

Start with breakfast and then travel through various landscapes, from winding valleys to prominent sand dunes. Begin by reaching the top of the Dades Valley for a panoramic view. Proceed to the Todra Valley, passing through Tinghir, where rocky canyons meet palm groves. Visit the Todra Gorge, known for its 400-meter high cliffs. After lunch near Tinjedad, continue towards the Erg Chebbi dunes. Observe ancient irrigation systems in Jorf with its 1,000 channels before arriving at the large sand dunes of Erfoud and Erg Chebbi. In the late afternoon, take a camel ride across the dunes. Watch the sunset as it changes the color of the sand. Return to the desert camp for dinner and traditional Berber music.

Day 3 : Merzouga → Draa Valley→ Ouarzazate → Marrakech ( 9 Hours Drive)

Wake up early to view the sunrise from the top of the dunes. After breakfast, begin the return journey to Marrakech, taking a different route back. The drive includes scenic views of the Saghro Mountains, featuring volcanic rock formations and the green oasis of the Draa Valley. Stop for lunch in Ouarzazate before continuing through the High Atlas Mountains. Make stops for photos along the way. Arrive in Marrakech around 6:30 PM. Your 3-days tour from Marrakech to Merzouga Desert concludes at your riad or hotel in Marrakech.
