4 Days Desert Tour From Fes To Marrakech

  The 4-day desert tour begins with a pick-up from your accommodation in Fes. From there, we travel toward the Sahara Desert. Our first stop will be the city of Ifrane, known as the “Switzerland of Morocco” due to its cooler climate and alpine-style architecture. Next, we will cross the Middle Atlas Mountains. Along the way, we’ll make a stop in a cedar forest to observe the Barbary monkeys, which are native to the region. Next, we will stop for meal lunch at a restaurant along the route.

Afterward, we’ll continue our journey through the Ziz Valley, a lush oasis filled with palm trees. We’ll take a break at a panoramic viewpoint to enjoy the breathtaking views of the valley. We will reach the desert in the afternoon, where your camels will be waiting to take you across the golden dunes to your luxury or traditional desert camp. Along the way, you’ll have the opportunity to watch the sunset from a high dune.

Once you arrive at the campsite, the staff will show you to your private tent, where you can relax and freshen up with a shower. After a delicious dinner, the team will light a bonfire, and you can enjoy the warm atmosphere while the Berbers drum and sing, creating a magical desert evening.

Start your day with an unforgettable experience by climbing the Erg Chebbi sand dunes to watch the sunrise. As the first light touches the golden sands, you’ll experience a moment of complete calm, with the vast desert stretching out before you.

Afterward, enjoy a leisurely breakfast and a shower at the camp. You can either ride the camels again or transfer by 4×4 back to the starting point, where you’ll meet your driver. Continue your 4 days tour from Fes to Marrakech. We will visit the weekly market of Rissani if it’s one of the market days (Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday).
