This 4 days Merzouga trip from Marrakech starts in the morning and heads straight into the High Atlas mountains. The winding road over the Tizi n’Tichka Pass (2 260m) offers incredible views of valleys and small villages.
The Marrakech desert tour passes by the Ounila Valley and the first major stop for visit is Aït Ben Haddou, a centuries-old Ksar made of red mudbrick. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage site.

After visit, you continue to Ouarzazate with an optional visit to the Atlas film studios. Then you head through the Skoura palm grove and the fragrant Valley of roses, arriving in Dades Valley before sunset. This is canyon area — known for its rock formations and rust-red cliffs. Overnight in a charming guest house.

Merzouga camel tour

After breakfast, this Merzouga trip from Marrakech heads deeper into the South. You will stop first at the Todra Gorge, where towering cliffs close in on a crystal-clear river. Short walk through the canyon before moving on.
You will pass through berber villages and desert towns – Tinjdad and Erfoud. This area is fossil country — a quick visit to a local fossil workshop reveals ancient marine life trapped in stone. Erfoud is also known for its date production.


In the early afternoon, you will reach Merzouga and the famous Erg Chebbi dunes. You go for an hour camel tour in the sand dunes. Other highlight of this Marrakech Sahara desert tour is the night in a Merzouga desert camp. Enjoy delicious dinner, live music around a campfire, and Moroccan hospitality.

Merzouga 4x4 tour

The 3d day of this desert tour from Marrakech is all about the desert — not just the sand, but the life in it.
After sunrise and breakfast, hop into a 4×4 to explore the surrounding area. You will visit Khamlia, a village known for Gnawa music, originally brought by Sub-Saharan Africans. Listen to hypnotic rhythms played on traditional instruments.
Continue to visit nomadic families who still live in the desert and learn how they survive in such a harsh environment. You may also visit old mines, fossil sites, or a seasonal lake (Dayet Srij).
In the afternoon, return to the desert camp in Merzouga where you can try sandsurf on the dunes. Night in a tent.

After breakfast at the desert camp in Merzouga, it’s time to head back to Marrakech. It’s a full day travel journey but you continue to enjoy many stunning landscapes.
The itinerary of this trip from Marrakech passes through Alnif and Tazzarine. The landscapes on the vas desert plain are really nice. You go through N’Kob and then in Adgz, located in the Draa Valley, where Morocco’s longest river snakes through palm groves and ancient kasbahs. The valley was once a caravan route for gold, salt, and spices.
Lunch along the way. In Ouarzazate, take a break before the journey over the Atlas mountains. This Merzouga trip from Marrakech ends in the evening.

The 4-day Morocco desert tour is for travelers ready to trade Wi-Fi for silence, speed for rhythm, and routine for something real. The dunes don’t just stretch across the land — they stretch time, too.
