Program Itinerary of the 2-Day Fez to Merzouga Desert Tour
Fes » Azrou (Cedar forest) » Midelt » Erfoud » Merzouga (Night in Desert Camp) [467 Km]
Your private driver meets you at your hotel at 8:15 am, then takes you to the town of Merzouga via the Azrou cedar forests and the Ziz Gorges.
It’s a fascinating route, with a lunch stop at a Berber café. Then you reach the edge of the Erg Chebbi dunes, mount your camels with a guide, and stay overnight among the dunes.
Merzouga Sahara Desert » Ziz Valley » Fes [469 km]
Start the day slowly — all the better to catch the sunrise from the top of the Chebbi dunes. Then ride your camel back to camp, take a shower, and enjoy a delicious Berber breakfast served by the friendly Merzouga camp team.
After breakfast, you travel back to Fes through the Atlas mountains, passing Rissani, Erfoud, Errachidia, and Midelt. The day includes a lunch stop and photos of the wild monkeys in the Azrou cedar forests before we arrive in Fes and drop you at your riad or hotel.

Reviews about our 2-Day Desert Tour Fes to Merzouga
100% Suggested My flights were scheduled two days in advance, and I appreciate that Mohamed got back to me and tailored a schedule that included everything I wanted to see and do in Morocco! Morocco has captured my heart, and I will return for further tours! Mohamed became my part-time photographer in addition to being an excellent driver! His service had a significant positive impact on my experience. What occurs when you travel alone. I only have wonderful things to say and have made some really special memories. Gratitude for everything, Morocco Day Tour.
