Rated 5.0 from 15 reviews on Google Maps — every trip reviewed here was planned and guided by our own team.

“From the moment we arrived at the camp, we were welcomed like royalty. A perfectly equipped luxury tent, top-notch meals, and a completely immersive atmosphere: every little detail had been carefully considered. We truly felt privileged to have such an exceptional experience.”
Samuel Brodeur
“The accommodations were very comfortable, and the desert camp in Merzouga was truly magical. The tent was spacious and comfortable, and the camel ride was a fun and unforgettable experience. A special thank you to our driver, Mohamed, who was outstanding! We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Morocco!”
Giovanna Landi
“We were a group of 9, and our experience with this agency was truly outstanding from start to finish. Our driver, Hassam, was punctual and professional, and throughout the journey we were taken to some of the most beautiful and authentic places. Everything exceeded our expectations, and honestly, words don't fully capture how incredible this experience was. Highly recommend!”

Morocco desert tour questions

Where do Morocco desert tours start?+

Our itineraries start in Marrakech, Fes, Casablanca or Tangier. If you arrive somewhere else, ask us about a different starting point.

How many days do you need for a Sahara desert tour?+

From Marrakech or Fes, 3 days is the most popular length: two long driving days with a night in the Merzouga desert camp. The 2-day option is possible but very rushed. Our longer tours run up to 15 days and add the imperial cities, gorges and coast.

Are your Morocco desert tours private?+

Yes. We plan private journeys for your own group, with a driver just for you. You choose the pace and the stops.

Can we travel from Marrakech to Merzouga?+

Yes. Our Marrakech tours cross the High Atlas via Ait Ben Haddou and the Dades Valley to the Erg Chebbi dunes. You can return to Marrakech or finish in Fes.

Can we travel from Fes to Marrakech through the Sahara?+

Yes. Our 3- and 4-day Fes to Marrakech tours go through the Middle Atlas to Merzouga, then on through the Todra Gorge and Ait Ben Haddou to Marrakech.

Do we have to ride a camel to reach the desert camp?+

No. On tours with a desert camp, we can arrange a 4x4 transfer instead of the camel ride.

Can you customize a Morocco itinerary?+

Yes. Tell us your dates, starting city, group size and interests and we'll adjust the route, the pace and the hotels. You can also try our AI trip planner first.

How do I get a price?+

Many tours show a price per person based on group size: the bigger the group, the lower the price. For the others, send us your dates and group size and we'll send you a quote.
