- Tour plan :

We begin by picking you up from your accommodation in Marrakech. The journey takes us across the Tizi N’Tichka mountain pass with breathtaking views of the Atlas Mountains and traditional Berber villages.

We continue through Tinjdad, Jorf, and Erfoud, where the vast oasis of Tafilalet begins. From there, it’s a short drive to Merzouga and the edge of the Erg Chebbi dunes.

Upon arrival, camels will be waiting to take you into the heart of the desert. Enjoy the serenity, take in the magical sunset, and try sandboarding on the dunes. After a traditional dinner, spend the night in a Berber camp under the starlit sky, with local music and drumming around the campfire.

Wake up early to watch the sunrise over the dunes. After breakfast and a shower at a nearby hotel, we start the return journey to Marrakech.

You’ll travel through authentic Berber villages such as Nkoub and Agdz, enjoying the changing landscapes of the Atlas Mountains along the way. Arrival in Marrakech in the evening marks the end of your desert adventure.
