The 3 day Desert tour from Marrakech to Fes is one of the most popular desert tours because it links between two imperial cities; Marrakech and Fes. This trip lets you discover a huge part of the south of Morocco by departing from Marrakech towards the Atlas Mountains, crossing some perched Berber villages to the famous Kasbahs of Ait Benhaddou and Ouarzazate and spending the first night in Dades gorges in a traditional hotel. Next day, you will enjoy a short walk in Todra gorges before heading towards Merzouga where you will ride camels and go deep in desert to spend a starry night under a peaceful sky in a nomadic bivouac. On the last day, we will take a different route heading towards Fez crossing many villages and wonderful sceneries along the way. In fez, our driver will drop you off in your hotel.

In 3 Day Desert Tour from Marrakech To Fes we will pick you up from your accommodation in Marrakech to head for Ouarzazate, the door way of Sahara, crossing the High Atlas Mountains through the Tizi- N-Tichka pass. The first stop of our desert tour will be in Ksar of Ait Benhaddou, the UNISCO world heritage site, that was the shooting location for many Hollywood movies like “Lawrence of Arabia” and “Jesus of Nazareth” and it is still inhabited by Berber villagers who preserve their traditional lifestyles. We suggest you to explore the Kasbah at your leisure by getting to the highest spot for a wonderful view to continue driving later to Ouarzazate in order to have dinner and spend the night in a perfect hotel.
