Join our 5-day Morocco group tour from Marrakech to Merzouga and experience the Sahara Desert with a small international group. This trip is perfect for solo travellers, couples, and friends who want to visit the desert at a better price while still enjoying comfortable accommodation, scenic stops, camel trekking, and a private desert camp with AC/heater.
Unlike many shared desert tours, this group departure includes airport pick-up and drop-off in Marrakech, 4 nights of accommodation, and a multilingual guide who speaks English, Spanish, and Italian.
Seats are limited. Once a departure reaches the minimum number of travellers, the tour is confirmed.
Welcome to Morocco. When you arrive at Marrakech Airport, our team will pick you up and transfer you to your accommodation in Marrakech.
After check-in, you will have free time to relax or explore the city at your own pace. You can visit Jemaa el-Fna Square, walk through the old medina, enjoy Moroccan food, or simply rest before the desert adventure begins.
Overnight in Marrakech.
After breakfast, we leave Marrakech and start our journey across the High Atlas Mountains. We will drive through the Tichka Pass, one of the most scenic mountain roads in Morocco, with stops for photos along the way.
We continue to the famous Kasbah of Ait Benhaddou, a beautiful fortified village and one of the most impressive historical sites in southern Morocco. After free time for lunch and the visit, we continue through Ouarzazate and the Rose Valley before arriving in the Dades area.
Dinner and overnight in Dades.
After breakfast, we drive toward Todra Gorges, where you will have time to walk between the high canyon walls and take photos.
After lunch, we continue toward Merzouga and the dunes of Erg Chebbi. When we arrive, you will meet the camels and ride through the dunes to the desert camp. The camel ride is usually done around sunset time, when the weather is better and the views are beautiful.
At the camp, you will enjoy dinner, Berber music, and a magical night in the Sahara Desert.
The desert camp includes private tents with AC/heater, making this tour a comfortable choice even during the summer months.

After breakfast, we will transfer you to Marrakech Airport according to your flight time.
End of our 5-day Morocco group tour from Marrakech to Merzouga.
Yes. August is hot in the desert during the day, but this tour is designed to make the experience more comfortable. The vehicle has air conditioning, the camel ride is planned around sunset, and the desert camp includes private tents with AC/heater.
This makes the tour a good summer option for travellers who want to experience the Sahara without giving up comfort.
