Explore Morocco in a 4 Days Tour from Fes to Merzouga Sahara and back. This well-paced journey takes you through the alpine charm of the Middle Atlas, the cedar forests of Azrou, the dramatic palm-lined valleys of Ziz, the rolling golden dunes of Erg Chebbi via camel trek, and the vibrant local markets of Rissani.
Your 4-day tour begins with a morning departure from Fes, heading into the captivating Middle Atlas Mountains. Stop at Ifrane, a town renowned for its alpine aesthetic and European-style architecture, often called “Little Switzerland.” Continue through the enchanting cedar forests of Azrou, where you can catch a glimpse of local Barbary macaque monkeys. Conclude your day in Midelt, nestled scenically between the Middle Atlas and High Atlas mountain ranges.
Resume your desert journey after breakfast with a scenic drive through the breathtaking Ziz Valley, flanked by expansive green palm groves. Pass through Erfoud—famous for its local fossil workshops—before arriving in Merzouga village by afternoon. Here, trade your vehicle for a camel trek across the Erg Chebbi dunes just in time to watch the mesmerizing sunset, arriving at your cozy desert camp for dinner and an overnight stay among the sand.
Wake up early to witness the magical sunrise painting the Sahara Desert in vibrant hues. Following breakfast, dive into a full day of desert activities: try sandboarding down towering dunes, visit nomadic settlements to gain insight into their traditional way of life, and take a refreshing break near local oases. In the late afternoon, enjoy another scenic camel ride back to camp, where a sumptuous traditional dinner and live Berber music await you under a brilliant starlit sky.
Rise early one last time to catch the dawn breaking over the desert campsite before enjoying a hearty breakfast. Bid farewell to Merzouga and begin your return journey to Fes, stopping to explore the lively traditional souk in Rissani. Travel northward through the magnificent Ziz Valley and the majestic Middle Atlas Mountains, arriving back in Fes by evening to conclude your unforgettable desert expedition.
