Intro

From Marrakech To Fes Via Merzouga Desert

This is a Desert Inclusive Tour and can be customised should you wish to extend your stay. It is ideally suited if you wish to combine your own planned visit to Morocco with an organised Desert Tour departing from your accommodation Marrakech and ending at your accommodation in the Imperial city of Fes.

Our ‘Marrakech To Fes Desert Express’ offers you a fast-paced road trip on the most travelled route into the popular Moroccan Erg Chebbi dune sets. It combines a stay in the rock formation heart of the Dades valley and relaxation at hotel accommodation at Merzouga village overlooking the dunes.

You visit iconic sites on this Desert route and have time to explore the surrounding dune area and Saharan villages before a camel trek and overnight stay in a Desert Camp prior to journeying North into the Middle Atlas Mountains, to arrive in the Imperial City of Fes.

Atmospheric accommodations, rich and diverse culture, a variety of natural landscapes changing by the Moroccan hour and adventure or relaxation before arriving in the archaic city of Fes await you on this considered tour.
