4-Day Sahara Desert Tour from Marrakech with Erg Chebbi Camp

• Avail an early pick-up from your hotel or riad in Marrakech and journey across the High Atlas Mountains to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Aït Benhaddou.

• See the fortified Kasbah, used as a filming location for famous Hollywood epics such as "Lawrence of Arabia."

• Enjoy some time in the Kasbah before driving to Ouarzazate, known as the "Gate of the Sahara."

• Following lunch at leisure, continue to Boumalne Dades via the Valley of the Roses.

• Upon arrival in Boumalne Dades, take the back roads through the Dades Canyons, passing stunning rock formations and fortified Kasbahs along the Dades River.

Continue to your hotel for dinner and an overnight stay.

• After breakfast at your hotel, drive the "Road of 1001 Kasbahs" to the small oasis town of Tinghir.

• Continue through the dramatic Todgha Gorges, pausing for some free time to explore the canyons and enjoy lunch at a local café. Then continue to Merzouga to meet your camel caravan.

• Experience the Erg Chebbi dunes on camelback and watch the sunset change the colour of the sand.

• Reach your desert camp before nightfall and enjoy an authentic Moroccan dinner under the stars. Local nomads will provide entertainment and show you how to play the tam tam drums.

• Wake early to watch the sunrise before breakfast (optional).

• Then ride your camel back to the main road, where your driver will be waiting to pick you up for the transfer to Ouarzazate via Tazarin Road.
