Tours from Marrakech: Desert & Morocco Itineraries

Private Sahara tours and longer journeys starting in Marrakech, from 2 days in Zagora to 10 days around Morocco.

Our speciality

Marrakech, the starting point of the Sahara

Marrakech is the natural gateway to southern Morocco. In a few hours, the road climbs over the High Atlas and drops into a world of kasbahs, palm groves and, eventually, the dunes of the Sahara.

Every tour below is private, with your own vehicle and driver, and can be adapted to your dates and pace. Short on time? The 2-day Zagora tour is the quickest desert escape. For the high dunes of Erg Chebbi, allow at least three days, for example with the 3 Days Marrakech to Merzouga. If you are continuing north, choose a one-way crossing to Fes. With a week or more, our longer loops combine the desert with the imperial cities, Chefchaouen and the Atlantic coast.
