Summary of the Sahara Desert tour

The tour is a discovery-based opportunity to new places. It starts from and ends in Fez. So, it begins with Fes as starting point. Then, Ifrane, Azrou, Midelt and Merzouga come after. You experience the fascinating camel riding and charming nights in deep desert camps. The return from Merzouga to Fez is through the Atlas Mountains and Berber Villages.

1^st DAY:

 

From Fez via Ifran, Azrou, and Midelt to MERZOUGA

This day is eventful. This excursion takes seven hours to get to Merzouga, passing the Middle Atlas Mountains. One of the most wonderfully formed sceneries in Morocco. Our team guides you through the vast green forest beside Ifrane. We will cease at this point for a break.  Then we continue our way through Azrou, Midelt, and Ziz Gorges. Naturally decorated sand dunes of Erg Chebbi emerge from a vantage position. We stop for a while to see the Kasbah in which many movies were made. We get Merzouga as a few hours go by. Just after this, the camels are waiting for us to start our journey to the dunes and establish our sophisticated camps. We ride to dunes in high places on camels to see the panoramic sunset.  Of the beautiful occurrences on the planet is the panoramic sunset on camels. We are summoned to enjoy the night in comfortable tents engulfed by Berber drums and a star-filled sky for a memorable day.

2^nd Day:

 

From Merzouga via the Sahara Desert and Camel Trekking

We usually wake up early to watch Erg Chebbi’s sunrise. Then we ride camel back to Merzouga in order to enjoy our breakfast. You are supposed to take a shower before we go back to Fez city. We take you to Ziz valley to discover it. Then we keep on our way to the Middle Atlas. There is normally a stop for a short break in the cedar forest. This stop is made to observe and feed the Barbary Monkeys.
