Itinerary
Start your journey from Fes at 08:00 AM, heading towards the enchanting Merzouga desert. Your first stop is Ifrane, famously known as the "Little Switzerland of Morocco" for its charming alpine-style architecture. Pause for a refreshing coffee in this scenic town before continuing to the cedar forest of Azrou, where you can spot playful Barbary apes.
The journey then takes you through the Middle Atlas Mountains to Midelt, also known as the "Apple Capital of Morocco," where you'll enjoy a lunch break. Proceed over the Tizi-n-Talghemt Pass, aptly named the "She-Camel Pass," and drive along the lush Ziz Valley, an oasis lined with palm trees and traditional Berber villages, with plenty of photo-worthy stops along the way.
Arrive in Merzouga by the afternoon, where your camel and guide await to lead you on an unforgettable trek across the golden Erg Chebbi Dunes. As the sun sets, watch the desert transform into a palette of fiery hues. End your day with a delicious dinner at a luxury desert camp, followed by an evening of Berber music around a campfire under the sparkling desert stars.
