About This Tour

This 3-day desert tour to Zagora and Erg Chegaga departing from Marrakech offers the opportunity to experience a camel ride in the desert of M’Hamid, climb pristine Sahara dunes, and sleep under the stars in the deep silence of the desert. Unlike the more visited dunes of Merzouga, Erg Chegaga offers a wilder, more remote experience. Along the way, you will discover the diverse landscapes of the Atlas Mountains, the Draa Valley oases, and historic UNESCO Kasbahs.

Tour Plan

We begin with an 8:00 AM pick-up from your accommodation in Marrakech. We cross the High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi N’Tichka Pass ($2,260$m), offering panoramic views of Berber villages. We visit the UNESCO World Heritage site of Ait Ben Haddou, a famous 18th-century fortified village. After lunch, we continue through Ouarzazate and across the Anti-Atlas mountains to reach the lush Draa Valley. We end the day in Zagora for dinner and an overnight stay in a hotel or Riad.

After breakfast, we head south to Tamagrout to visit the Zaouia Nasiryaa, home to one of the oldest libraries in the Kingdom. We continue to M’hamid, the gateway to the deep desert. From here, we transition to a 4x4 or camels to navigate the vast plateaus until the massive dunes of Erg Chegaga appear on the horizon. Enjoy a sunset camel trek across the high dunes followed by a traditional Berber dinner and music at a desert camp under the stars.

We drive across the peaceful wilderness and the natural dried lake of Iriki, a former haven for migratory birds. After an off-road adventure, we reach the quiet town of Foum-Zguid and continue to Tazenakht, a major center for Berber carpet weaving. From there, we join the main road, passing through various oases and villages before crossing the High Atlas Mountains once more to return to Marrakech, arriving in the evening.
