set out on a captivating 4-day desert adventure from Fes, designed to immerse you in the heart of the Moroccan Sahara. This journey guides you through the majestic Atlas Mountains, introduces you to ancient Berber culture, and culminates in a magical sunset camel trek and an overnight stay in a traditional desert camp beneath a canopy of brilliant stars.
Your desert adventure begins with a scenic journey south from Fes into the cedar-cloaked Middle Atlas Mountains. We’ll pause in Ifrane, a charming town known as “Morocco’s Switzerland,” before entering the ancient forests of Azrou to meet the region’s playful Barbary macaques. After a lunch stop in Midelt, the scenery shifts dramatically as we descend into the lush Ziz Valley, a breathtaking ribbon of green palms. By late afternoon, the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi will announce your arrival in Merzouga, where you’ll settle into your hotel for the evening.
After breakfast, immerse yourself in the heart of the Sahara. A 4×4 excursion will take you to Khamlia village to experience the powerful rhythms of Gnawa music, then onward to the historic Miffis mines and out into the vast desert to connect with a nomadic family over traditional mint tea. In the afternoon, the highlight of your Sahara experience awaits: an iconic camel trek into the vast Erg Chebbi dunes. You will pause to witness an unforgettable sunset from a high dune before arriving at your traditional Berber camp, where a delicious dinner is served under a spectacular canopy of stars.
Awaken to the magic of a Sahara sunrise over the dunes. After breakfast at the camp, you’ll ride your camel back to the village to reconnect with your driver. Our journey then continues towards the magnificent Todra Gorge, a colossal canyon with sheer rock walls perfect for a short hike or a relaxing walk along the riverbed. Following lunch, we will travel through the picturesque Dades Valley, famous for its winding roads and dramatic rock formations, before settling into your hotel nestled within the gorge.
After breakfast, we begin our scenic journey back to Fes. The route retraces our path through the lush palm groves of the Ziz Valley and across the majestic Middle Atlas Mountains, with a planned stop for lunch in Midelt. We will pass through the cedar forests and the charming town of Ifrane for a final break before arriving in Fes by late afternoon, where your unforgettable 4-day desert adventure concludes at your accommodation.
