 Verified Enjoyable family experience Our family of five landed in Marrakech a full 24 hrs late due to flight issues but Hamid & Mustafa were right there patiently waiting for us at the airport at 2:00AM. It was evident that point on that we were in absolutely good hands for the entire duration of the trip. We enjoyed every moment of the trip. It was so relaxed and at our pace ( with kids). We had sufficient time to explore and soak in all the places. The Riad arrangements were awesome. The food stops were well thought. At one point our son left his laptop behind ( he is wired into his school work) but Hamid & Mustafa worked their contacts to have the laptop to us before we left Morocco. We would highly recommend them for first time travelers with families.

Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour Itinerary

Day 1 Start of Your Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour 7h 9min (462 km)

Your Fes to Marrakech desert tour 4 days begins with a morning pickup from your hotel/riad in Fes. The first stop is Ifrane, a charming town known for its European-style architecture. Take a short break to enjoy the fresh air and maybe a cup of coffee before continuing to the cedar forest of Azrou in the Middle Atlas Mountains, where you can see Barbary monkeys.

Next, drive through the beautiful landscapes of Midelt and the Ziz Valley, a lush area full of palm trees, before reaching Merzouga in the afternoon. Settle into your riad and admire the golden Erg Chebbi dunes that surround the town.

Day 2Camel Ride & Desert Exploration in Erg Chebbi

Wake up to a delicious breakfast at your riad before starting an exciting day in the Merzouga desert. Your first stop is Khamlia, a small village where you can listen to Gnawa music, a unique rhythm played by locals whose ancestors came from Africa. Then, take an off-road drive to M’Fis, an abandoned mining village.

After that, visit a nomadic Berber family living behind the Erg Chebbi dunes. Enjoy a cup of tea with them and learn about their traditional way of life.

In the afternoon, embark on a camel ride across the high dunes. Stop on a big dune to try sandboarding and watch a breathtaking sunset. Arrive at your desert camp, where you will have dinner, listen to traditional drum music, and spend the night under the starry sky.

Day 3Morocco Desert Tour from Merzouga to Dades 3h 43min (248 km)

Wake up early to witness a magical sunrise over the dunes, then enjoy breakfast at your desert camp. After that, leave Merzouga and pass through Rissani, Erfoud, and Tinghir on your way to the famous Todra Gorge, a beautiful canyon with tall rock formations.

If it’s a market day in Rissani (Sunday, Tuesday, or Thursday), you can visit a local souk where people sell spices, handmade crafts, and street food. There will be plenty of stops along the way to take pictures and learn about the local traditions.

In the afternoon, arrive at Dades Gorge, where you will spend the night in a comfortable hotel. Enjoy dinner and relax after a long day of travel.

Next, explore the Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that has been used as a filming location for movies like Gladiator and Prince of Persia. After a delicious lunch, drive through the High Atlas Mountains, passing Berber villages and scenic landscapes.

Morocco Desert Tour From Fes FAQ

How long is the camel ride in the desert?

The camel ride to the desert camp takes about 1 hour each way. If you prefer, you can take a 4×4 instead of riding a camel.

What should I pack for this Fes to Marrakech desert tour 4 days?

You should bring comfortable clothing, walking shoes, warm clothes for the night, sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat, a small backpack for personal items, and a camera or phone to capture the beautiful desert scenery.

Can I ride the camel if I have back or knee problems?

If you have back or knee issues, you can skip the camel trek and take a 4×4 vehicle to the desert camp instead. Let us know in advance, and we will arrange a comfortable transfer for you.

Will there be vegetarian or special meal options?

Yes, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free meal options are available. Please inform us of any dietary requirements when booking.

What is the best time to take this Morocco desert trip?

The best time is spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) when the weather is not too hot or too cold.

Is 3 days enough for Sahara journey from Fes?

Yes, a 3-day desert tour is enough if you have limited time and want to experience the Sahara Desert highlights. You will still enjoy camel trekking, a luxury desert camp, and beautiful landscapes along the way. However, driving distances are longer each day compared to the 4-day or 5-day tours. If you want a more relaxed experience with extra time in Merzouga, we recommend the 4 Days Fes To Marrakech Desert Tour Via Merzouga or the 5 Days Desert Tour Fes to Marrakech | Sahara Camel Trek & Atlas Mountains.

Should I choose a luxury desert camp or a standard camp?

Both camp options offer a memorable Sahara Desert experience, but they are different in comfort and facilities. Standard camps are simple, comfortable, and perfect for travelers looking for an authentic desert atmosphere. Luxury camps offer private bathrooms, comfortable beds, larger tents, and extra comfort for couples, families, or honeymoon trips. If comfort is important to you, we highly recommend upgrading to a luxury camp during your 3 Days Desert Tour Fes to Marrakech (Camel Trek & Luxury Camp) or your 4-day Sahara adventure.

Is Merzouga Desert safe for tourists?

Yes, Merzouga is considered one of the safest tourist destinations in Morocco. Local people are friendly and welcoming, and thousands of travelers visit the Sahara Desert every year. Our experienced local drivers and guides are familiar with the region and ensure a safe and enjoyable experience during your journey. Whether you choose the 2 Days Fes To Marrakech Desert Tour or a longer Sahara trip, your safety and comfort are always our priority.
