Tours from Fes: Sahara, Imperial Cities & the North

Private tours from Fes to the Merzouga dunes, across the Sahara to Marrakech, or north to Chefchaouen and the Atlantic coast.

Gateway to the north and the Sahara

Why start your Morocco tour in Fes?

Fes is the closest imperial city to the Erg Chebbi dunes and the perfect base for exploring northern Morocco.

From Fes, the road south crosses the cedar forests of the Middle Atlas and the Ziz Valley to reach Merzouga in about eight hours, which makes a 2-day desert trip possible. Many travellers continue across the country to Marrakech through the gorges and kasbahs of the south, as in our 4 Days Fes to Marrakech Desert Tour. If the desert is not on your list this time, routes via Chefchaouen and Rabat connect Fes with Marrakech through the north and the coast. Every itinerary is private and can be adapted.
