ITINERARY : the 2 days Fes to Marrakech desert tour
Day 1: Fes → Ifrane → Middle Atlas Mountains → Ziz Valley → Merzouga
Your unforgettable Fes to Marrakech desert tour 2 days begins with a pickup from your riad in Fes. The journey heads south toward the magical Sahara desert, with the first stop in Ifrane, a charming town often called the Switzerland of Morocco due to its alpine architecture and cool climate.
Next, you’ll travel through the scenic Middle Atlas Mountains, making a stop in a cedar forest to see wild Barbary monkeys. After a local lunch along the route, the drive continues through the impressive Ziz Valley, where you’ll pause at a panoramic viewpoint to admire the lush palm-filled oasis.
By the afternoon, you’ll arrive in Merzouga, where your camel caravan awaits. Ride across the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi and enjoy a peaceful sunset over the Sahara. At the luxury desert camp, you’ll settle into your private en-suite tent. After dinner, gather around the campfire and enjoy traditional Berber music under the stars.
Day 2: Merzouga → Ait Ben Haddou → High Atlas Mountains → Marrakech
wake up early to witness a breathtaking Sahara sunrise, followed by breakfast at the camp. Then, travel by 4×4 back to Merzouga town and begin your scenic drive to Marrakech.
En route, you’ll stop at Ait Ben Haddou, a stunning UNESCO World Heritage Site and Morocco’s most iconic kasbah. This ancient fortified village has been featured in films like The Mummy, Prince of Persia, and Game of Thrones. Take time to explore and capture its timeless charm.
Afterwards, continue your journey through the majestic High Atlas Mountains, with stops for panoramic views. Your 2-day desert tour from Fes to Marrakech ends as your guide drops you off at your hotel or riad in Marrakech.

A Short Tour Packed with Incredible Moments
We booked the 2-day desert tour from Fes to Marrakech and were lucky to have Hamid as our driver and guide — he was fantastic! From the moment he picked us up, we felt safe, comfortable, and well taken care of. He explained everything in clear English and made the long drive feel easy with great conversations and local insights.
The camel ride in the Erg Chebbi dunes was a dream, and watching the sunset over the Sahara was something I’ll never forget. The luxury desert camp was clean, beautiful, and peaceful — the perfect place to relax after a long day. This tour is ideal if you’re short on time but still want to experience the magic of the desert. Thank you, Hamid, for making it so special!
Excellent 2-Day Desert Experience
We didn’t have much time in Morocco, so we chose the 2-day Fes to Marrakech desert tour — and it turned out to be the best decision! Adil, our guide and driver, was incredibly professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. He shared so much about Moroccan culture and history during the journey.
Even though the distances are long, the stops were well-planned. Ifrane, the cedar forest, the Ziz Valley… all stunning! The highlight was of course the camel ride and the night in the luxury camp. The tents were very comfortable, and the dinner and music around the fire made it feel magical. Highly recommend this tour, especially with Hamid as your guide!
