From the Red City to the Heart of Fes: A Local’s Way to Cross the Sahara

Why settle for a simple transfer when you can turn the road between Marrakech and Fes into the highlight of your Moroccan holiday? As a locally-owned agency based in Fes, we know this route isn’t just about the miles, it’s about the hidden Kasbahs, the changing colors of the Atlas peaks, and the silence of the Erg Chebbi dunes.

Most travelers rush through the Ziz Valley, but our private drivers, who have lived in these regions their entire lives, know exactly where to stop for the best panoramic views and authentic Berber hospitality. Whether you’re exploring the UNESCO-protected Ait Ben Haddou or mounting a camel at sunset in Merzouga, you are traveling with locals who treat you like a guest, not just a tourist.

Itinerary

DAY 1FROM MARRAKESH TO DADES GORGES THROUGH HIGH ATLAS AND OUARZAZATE

At 8:00 am, we will meet you at your accommodation’s reception to start your 3 Days Marrakech to Fes Desert Tours. We depart to Dades via the High Atlas Mountains, crossing Tichka Pass, which stands 2260m above sea level. We will stop to visit an argan oil women’s cooperative to see how Argan oil is made, and enjoy a cup of coffee. Then, we continue to Kasbah Telouat, the former home of the famous warlord El Pasha Lglaoui. Afterward, we travel along the salt road to reach the UNESCO World Heritage site, Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou, for a visit and lunch at a local restaurant.

We then continue toward Dades, passing through Ouarzazate, also known as the “Hollywood of Africa,” where famous films like Gladiator and The Mummy were shot. On the way, we pass through Skoura Palm Grove and Rose Valley, stopping at a women’s cooperative for rose distillation. Our day ends in Dades, where we will stay overnight.

DAY 2 FROM DADES GORGES TO MERZOUGA THROUGH TODRA GORGES AND ERFOUD

After breakfast, we leave Dades and head toward Merzouga, stopping at Todra Gorge to admire its towering 300m-high rocks. Continuing our 3 Days Marrakech to Fes Desert Tours through the town of Tinjdad, we will stop for lunch along the way. Afterward, we pass through Erfoud, famous for its date festival and fossil-rich landscape.

Once we arrive in Merzouga, you will leave your luggage at the hotel, taking only what’s needed for the night, and embark on a camel trek across the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi. Watch the sunset as you ride to the desert camp, where you will spend the night in a traditional nomad tent.

DAY 3FROM MERZOUGA TO FES VIA MIDELT AND IFRANE

Wake up early to witness one of the most beautiful sunrises over the desert dunes. After enjoying the sunrise with a cup of coffee, return by camel to the hotel for breakfast and a shower. Then, we begin our journey to Fez, passing through the cedar forests of the Middle Atlas where we may spot the local Barbary apes. On the way, we will also pass through Ifrane, known as the “Switzerland of Morocco” for its European-style architecture and cleanliness.

We will conclude your 3 Days Marrakech to Fes Desert Tours with a drop-off at your accommodation in Fes.
