Make the most of your time in Marrakech exploring its spectacular desert landscapes on a private tour: discover Merzouga or Zagora with your partner, family or friends.
If you're staying in Marrakech and want to explore the desert at your leisure, you can book any of our private tours. These tours are 2 to 4 days long and include pick-up from your hotel or riad in Marrakech, transport in a luxury private vehicle with an English-speaking driver and standard or premium accommodation.
Here's what each trip includes:
Get an authentic experience of Morocco on a 2-day trip to the Zagora Sahara Desert and visit traditional Amazigh communities. The itinerary is similar to our 2-Day Zagora Desert Trip.
You'll travel across part of the Atlas mountain range, the Drâa Valley and its palm grove before entering the magical Zagora Desert, where you'll ride a camel and spend the night in a traditional Amazigh haima.
The next day, you'll get up early to enjoy an unforgettable desert sunrise and head back to Marrakech via the Drâa Valley and Agdez. On the way, you'll stop at Ouarzazate to visit the Kasbah Taourirt.
Discover the contrasts of the different landscapes of Morocco on a fun-filled 3-day tour to Merzouga from Marrakech. The itinerary is similar to our 3-Day Sahara Desert Trip.
On the first day, you'll head to Kasbah de Ait-Ben-Haddou, a fascinating fortified city. Afterwards, upon arrival in Ouarzazate, you'll explore the Kasbah of Taourirt. Then you'll head across the Valley of the Roses and spend the night in the stunning Dadès Gorges.
On the second day, you'll explore the Dadès Valley and the Todra Gorge and before crossing the Jorf Palm Grove and Erfoud, until you reach the Merzouga Desert, where you'll spend the night.
You'll begin the last day of the tour with a magnificent desert sunrise. We'll leave the desert through the stunning landscapes of the Rissani palm grove and the Anti-Atlas Mountains. We'll also pass through Tinghir, Boumalne Dades, and the village of Imassine, where we'll stop for lunch before beginning our return journey to Marrakech.
During the booking process, you'll have the option of ending this tour in Fez instead.
Discover one of Morocco's most beautiful deserts as well as some of the most incredible landscapes on this 4-day trip. The route will be similar to our 4-Day Merzouga Desert Trip.
On the first day, we'll head to the Atlas Mountains until we reach the Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, the most impressive fortified city in Morocco, and the set for movies such as Lawrence of Arabia, Gladiator and Kingdom of Heaven. From there we'll make our way to Skoura, Kelaat M'gouna and Dadès Gorges, where we'll spend the night.
The second day will take us on a tour of the Dadès Valley, the Todra Gorge and the Jorf Palm Grove. We'll also cross the beautiful village of Erfoud to reach Merzouga, where we'll go on a camel ride through the desert.
On the third day of the tour, we'll hop back on the camels to enjoy a sunrise in the desert. We'll return to Ouarzazate, heading through the Tafilalet Palm Grove and Rissani before arriving in Alnif to take the Anti Atlas road to Tazarine, N'kob and finally to the Drâa Valley. At the end of the day, we'll return to the hotel in Ouarzazate.
On the last day, we'll visit the Atlas Film Studios and the famous Kasbah Taourirt. The tour will end in Marrakech.
On the 2-day trip to Zagora, you'll stay at a desert camp with lots of facilities, including shared toilets and showers. The nomad tents have a capacity of up to 5 people, but you won’t have to share your tent with other guests.
On the 3 and 4-day trips to Merzouga, you'll stay in standard or superior accommodation, either a 3 or 4-star hotel or a desert camp with shared bathrooms:
In both the hotels and the desert camps, the price indicated is per person sharing a double room. If you would prefer, triple and family rooms are also available. Also, air-conditioning in the luxury camps has an additional charge of 30EUR per tent.
When you book a private tour, you'll enjoy a personalised service with an exclusive English-speaking guide just for you, and you can do the tour whenever you like! What's more, if you're a bigger group, you'll save money!
The Kasbah of Taourirt in Ouarzazate is temporarily closed. However, you can take photos from outside.
