🚗 Approx. 6 hours drive
Your tour begins as we leave the hustle of Marrakech behind and climb into the Atlas Mountains. As the road winds through dramatic mountain scenery and Berber villages, we stop for photo ops and cultural insights.
Our highlight today is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ait Benhaddou. This ancient fortified village has starred in films like Gladiator and Game of Thrones. Explore its narrow alleys and earthen buildings before continuing on to the Valley of Roses.
By late afternoon, we reach the stunning Dades Valley, known for its rock formations and kasbahs. Enjoy a traditional Moroccan dinner and rest for the night in this peaceful valley setting.
🚗 Approx. 4 hours drive
Today starts with a scenic drive through the Dades Gorges. Then, we arrive at Tinghir, a green oasis surrounded by mountains and palm trees. A local guide will walk you through its lush gardens and ancient kasbahs while sharing fascinating stories of the area’s history.
Next, we stop at Todra Gorge, where sheer cliffs rise dramatically on both sides. It’s the perfect spot for photos and a relaxed walk along the river.
In the afternoon, we reach Merzouga, the gateway to the Sahara. Here, your camel trek begins—an unforgettable ride across the glowing dunes of Erg Chebbi as the sun sets. Tonight, sleep in a traditional desert camp, enjoy dinner, and dance around the fire to live Berber music under a sky full of stars.
🚗 Approx. 8 hours drive
Wake up early to witness the sunrise over the Sahara—a moment of pure peace. After breakfast, we begin our scenic drive north toward Fes.
Our journey takes us through the Ziz Valley, famous for its sweeping palm groves and dramatic cliffs. We'll stop for lunch in Midelt, a quiet mountain town between the High and Middle Atlas.
From there, we pass through Azrou, home to Barbary apes in its cedar forests. It’s a fun, refreshing stop before heading to Ifrane, Morocco’s most surprising town with Swiss-like charm and clean, alpine-style streets.
By late afternoon, we’ll arrive in Fes, where we’ll drop you off at your accommodation, ending an amazing 3-day adventure.
