We start our journey early in the morning, heading south through the beautiful Middle Atlas Mountains.

Ifrane Stop (Middle Atlas – Premium Experience) A refined alpine retreat in the Middle Atlas, Ifrane offers an exclusive moment of calm on the journey to the Sahara. Known for its elegant European-inspired architecture and immaculate streets, the town sits amid cedar forests and crisp mountain air. Nearby Azrou provides a chance to observe Barbary macaques in their natural environment. This scenic pause delivers a striking contrast between Morocco’s serene highlands and the dramatic desert landscapes ahead.

We pass through Berber villages and mountain landscapes until we reach Midelt, where you will enjoy a traditional Amazigh (Berber) lunch.

Drive through the spectacular Ziz Valley, where lush palm groves follow the river below and vast canyon landscapes open into sweeping, unforgettable desert panoramas.

Pass through Erfoud, a desert gateway known for its rich date palms and traditional fossil craftsmanship, marking your final approach towards the Sahara’s vast dunes.

Arrive in Merzouga, gateway to the Erg Chebbi dunes, where your camel caravan is ready for a sunset crossing over the golden sands. Settle into a comfortable desert camp for a traditional dinner, live Berber music, and a peaceful night beneath the Sahara’s star-filled sky.
