Would you like to ride camels and sleep in Berber tents in the Erg Chebbi Dunes? Our 4-day desert tour from Errachidia to Marrakech is your best choice. Moreover, you will not only fully explore the desert but also the Todra Gorges, Ouarzazate, Ait Benhaddou, and the Atlas Mountains.
Here are the tour highlights:
We will pick you up at either Moulay Ali Cherif Airport or your hotel in Errachidia to start your 4-day desert trip to Marrakech.
To start with, we will travel through the Ziz Valley, which is a huge place with one of the biggest palm groves in Morocco. Next, we’ll go to Erfoud, which is famous for its date festival, which takes place in late October every year.
We will keep going towards the Erg Chebbi dunes in the afternoon. At the Erg Chebbi dunes, an experienced camel guide will be ready with camels to take you across the Merzouga dunes for an hour to your desert camp, where you will spend the night.
We are going to take the 4×4 car to see the most interesting desert attractions. We will start by going to see the Berber Nomads. They still live in tents and raise camels, goats, and sheep to make a living. We will spend some time with them and learn about how they live. Following that, we will depart for Mifiss’s kohl mine.
Our trip will go on to Khamlia, a small town about 5 km away from Merzouga. You will learn about a different way of life here. People who are Gnaoua originally came from Mali, Niger, Gabon, and other places. Even though some of them lived in Khamlia and learned Berber, they kept their traditions.
We will show you a lot of other places today. One example is the view of Glb Nass from above, the Museum of Emirati 4x4s, and the desert Oases.
On the second day of our Errachidia desert tour in 4 days, you should get up early to see the sunrise. After taking you back to the center on camels, we will leave Merzouga. We will take the road to the old Fezna irrigation system before we get to Tinghir. Along the way, we will stop at a Berber clothing company to try on free Berber clothes.
We will go to the Grand Canyon of the Todgha Gorges near Tinghir after lunch. You will have time to walk along the valley and take shots when you get there. We will finally take the road to Dades, where you will spend the third night.
After a delicious breakfast at the Dades Hotel. A few fun stops will be made along the way as we drive to Marrakech.
We will start by driving through Kalaat Mgouna, which is famous for the Rose Valley. There are a lot of cooperatives in this valley that use roses to make beauty products.
After that, we’ll drive through Skoura, a small city with lots of long palm trees. The Kasbah of Amridil, an old castle from the 17th century that is still partly lived in, is what this city is known for. You can walk through the old homes and see how people used to live. It’s kind of like a museum. Before we go to Ouarzazate, you will have some time to look around this place.
Many movies have been filmed in Ouarzazate, which is also known as the “Hollywood of Morocco,” because of its beautiful old kasbahs. There, you will have an hour to see one of the Atlas studios where movies used to be made.
After lunch, we will go to the Kasbah of Ait Benhaddou. It’s an old mud castle! It’s famous for movies and has a fun history walk.
In the afternoon, we will take the Tizi N’tichka pass, stopping along the way to admire the views of the Atlas mountains. After dropping you off at your hotel in Marrakech, the 4-day desert tour from Errachidia comes to an end.
“My family and I joined an excellent private 4-day Errachidia to Marrakech desert tour with our remarkable tour guide Hamid. The tour was just perfect, the food was nice, the night in the desert was amazing, ATV driving in the desert was super fun and our guide was an extremely helpful and friendly person. Hamid made this desert tour a highlight of our journey in Morocco with his wealth of knowledge. For anyone craving a taste of Morocco’s finest experience, Morocco Vacations is an absolute must.”
“We did the Errachidia to Marrakesh four-day private tour with Hassan as our driver/guide. He and the tour were both excellent. Our first night in the desert was amazing, our second night’s accommodation was fantastic and the food was superb. Hassan was happy to stop when we needed/wanted! He showed us a beautiful side of Morocco (the scenery was stunning) and explained the history/landscape to us in detail. We stopped at some great places on the way and were made to feel very welcome. We would recommend it!”
