3 Day Group Tour From Marrakech To Sahara Desert
Description
The 3 day desert tour from Marrakech to Merzouga allows travelers to experience many different parts of Morocco in a short time. In just three days, the journey passes through mountains, historic villages, green valleys, rocky canyons, and finally the vast Sahara Desert. Few tours offer such a variety of landscapes in one trip. Another special part of this tour is the chance to visit traditional places that reflect Morocco’s culture and history. Crossing the High Atlas Mountains, exploring the ancient village of Ait Ben Haddou, and seeing local Berber communities along the road give travelers a deeper understanding of the country. The highlight for most visitors is reaching the Erg Chebbi dunes near Merzouga. Riding a camel across the golden sand during sunset creates a calm and unforgettable moment. Spending the night in a desert camp, enjoying traditional music, and watching the stars in the quiet Sahara makes the experience truly memorable.

It was so much. Camel trekk is really good and views are spectacular. Them camp itself is amazing and luxury. Breakfast and dinner are also good. Just sandboarding is difficult because sandboard is bit broken. It was amazing experience
Great experience! Private camel ride. Everything was as described. Nice staff and gargantuan meals!
Amazing camel experience with good duration, the guide takes photos, rustic but nice tents, warm welcome, attentive staff, traditional food and sandboard. They provide bottled fresh water!
We didn't know very well what we were going to find and we are still amazed by the experience. The treatment of all the staff has been wonderful. Super delicious dinner. The luxury tents. After a short concert Hasan, who is a very cultured guy, told us a lot of things about the nomadic Berber world and life in the desert. We were chatting until a thousand hours. And then the dawn, playing with the boards, throwing ourselves through the dunes... Youseff, our camel guide, a charming boy. Even the camels seemed to smile! It was 9am and we were dancing salsa on his patio. In short, an experience of 10 that leaves us with a little taste. Next time, we will return for 6 days. Thank you all. Juan and Maria (Fatima).😘
Our guide Houcine was great. He lives there and was happy to share just enough information about the locations we crossed. The group size of 15 was okay, more than that would be too much. The day after the tour we missed our guide: when I say you need one to peacefully visit Morocco I mean it. Sure you will be encouraged to spend a little bit of money and tips at some point, but you avoid the hassle of being constantly offered stuff and approached just because you are white.
This was such a beautiful, once in a lifetime experience! Loved every minute! The two guides who served our food and played the drums were so much fun, and the campsite was clean and tidy. Watching the stars at night was breathtaking, and the camel ride was full of laughs.
This was the perfect experience for our Moroccan trip. Truly amazing! We were a little late arriving at the 4pm departure time but the host was totally fine with it and understanding. Hopped on our camels that we got to name ourselves, and we were off! The guide took great photos with us and was very pleasant and answered all of our questions. There was another guide at camp already and they prepared what may have been the best dinner of our entire trip with mint tea at sunset. Way better than expected. We then sat around a fire and they brought out some bongos and we had a great time playing music with them, talking and just taking in the entire experience. This was the best way to learn about the berber culture and music and they were very gracious in sharing that with us. They showed us some Desert Blues on spotify that we listened to for the rest of the trip and while back home because it is so good! We then had an amazing breakfast and did some sandboarding before we cameled back to the apartment and showered. We wish you the best in your future and keep on playing music! The apartment is a little difficult to find but just download that area for google maps beforehand and go directly to the location that the host sends you after booking.
It was an amazing and unforgettable adventure! We are happy that we have chosen these guys, everything was perfect! Dinner and breakfast were fantastic! They did maximum to make us feel satisfied and comfortable. We are thankful to our guid Said for everything. Recommended strongly to choose this trip !
