The price for our 2-day Sahara tour from Marrakech to Fes varies based on group size and your choice of desert camp—Standard or Luxury.
We will pick you up from your accommodation in Fes at 8:00 AM to begin your adventure. Our first stop will be Ifrane, a charming winter ski resort built by the French in a Swiss style. Next, we’ll visit the cedar forests of Azrou, where you can feed the monkeys and enjoy the beautiful scenery. As we cross the Atlas Mountains, we’ll pass through traditional Berber villages, springs, rocky landscapes, and forests. We’ll stop for lunch in Midelt, a town renowned for its fossils and rocks, before continuing our journey toward Merzouga. Along the way, we’ll pause for panoramic views of the vast palm tree oasis. Upon arrival in the afternoon, you can relax with a refreshing mint tea before embarking on a camel ride through the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi, leading to the desert camp. You’ll spend the night in a traditional Berber tent, enjoying dinner, a campfire, and live traditional music under the stars.
We will wake up early to witness one of the most breathtaking sights: the sunrise over the dunes. After savoring this magical moment and enjoying a traditional breakfast at the camp, we’ll ride camels back to our starting point, where we’ll switch to our vehicle and continue the journey to Fes. Our route will take us through Erfoud, known for its fossils and marble stone sculptures.
Along the way, we’ll pass through the Ziz Valley with its lush palm groves, Errachidia, and Midelt, stopping in the cedar forest to meet the famous wild monkeys.
As we continue our overnight desert tour from Marrakech to Fes, we’ll arrive in Fes in the afternoon, where we will drop you off at your hotel, riad, or the closest accessible point. This marks the end of our overnight Marrakech desert tour to Fes.
