From Fes, a 3 day Sahara desert tour of Morocco. You will see a great deal of amazing sights throughout your 3-day, 2-night vacation. First, we depart from Fes, a cultural center, to travel to Ifrane, Morocco’s Switzerland, and the cedar forest. Lunch in Midelt is followed by a drive through the magnificent Ziz valley. You will travel to Merzouga in the Sahara Desert. Spend the night at a desert camp in the middle of the desert, where you can ride camels. And take in the breathtaking sunrise and sunset in the Sahara. In a 4×4 car, explore Merzouga’s Saharan desert.
Additionally, go to the Erfoud fossil town and the traditional market in Rissani. We eventually head back to Fes. The excursion of the desert is over.
The interest for tours that go from Fes to the desert and return is rising. In order to do this, excursions-marrakech has designed a unique excursion from Fes to the Erg Chebbi desert. You may visit the desert and fully appreciate Morocco’s diversity by taking this 3-day desert journey from Fes to the magnificent Erg Chebbi dunes in Merzouga.
You first travel through the breathtaking Middle Atlas Mountains, pausing in Azrou’s cedar grove to observe Barbary apes. There are many typical Berber villages that you will pass where you can talk to locals. You can go for a short hike with a local guide in the well-known Toudgha Gorges, which are nestled amid these magnificent mountains. You can also stroll along the river there. You will spend the night at a stunning real guesthouse at the edge of the valley or in the gorges themselves.
The Erg Chebbi dune climb on a camel is unquestionably the highlight of the desert excursion. The experience is further enhanced by snapping images of yourself wearing blue nomadic turbans against a stunning sunset while strolling barefoot across wind-blown sand dunes. The ideal methods to start the exotic evening are with mint tea and a traditional Moroccan supper under a sky filled with stars. Desert joys are further enhanced by listening to Berber music while gathered around a campfire.
This extraordinary day is finished with your very own private and comfy tent in a luxurious desert camp next to the large dunes.
On your way back to Fes, you’ll see the enormous number of date palms that are planted in the Ziz Valley, which is well-known for its date festival. The astounding and mind-blowing fossil discoveries on show in Erfoud attest to how old this region of the country is. As an alternative, you can go on our breathtaking 4-day Fes Desert Tour, which travels from Fes to Marrakech and Ouarzazate.
