Atlas Mountains Tours in Fall

I recently had the incredible opportunity to join the 3-Day Desert Tour from Marrakech to Fez, and I can honestly say it was one of the most unforgettable travel experiences I've ever had. From the very beginning, the trip took me on a stunning journey through Morocco's diverse landscapes. We traversed the majestic Atlas Mountains, observed the playful Barbary apes in the cedar forests, and visited the UNESCO-listed Ait Ben Haddou, a true gem with its ancient kasbahs that once served as the backdrop for Hollywood films like Gladiator and series like Game of Thrones. Hakim, our driver, was fantastic—his expert knowledge of the area, combined with his smooth driving, made the long hours in the van enjoyable and relaxing. The highlight of the tour, without a doubt, was the time spent in the Sahara Desert. After an adventurous camel ride through the Erg Chebbi dunes at sunset, I arrived at a luxury desert camp where we enjoyed traditional Berber music around the campfire under the starry desert sky. The feeling of being so far from everything, surrounded by the vastness of the desert, was truly magical. Hakim made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip, and his friendly nature made the journey even more enjoyable. On the final day, we made our way to Fez, passing through charming Berber villages and the Middle Atlas Mountains. We even stopped to see the monkeys in the cedar forests. The trip was long but absolutely worth it, filled with breathtaking scenery, fascinating history, and a deep dive into the rich culture of Morocco. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore the heart of Morocco, and I’m so grateful for Hakim’s guidance and expertise throughout the entire journey. It was the trip of a lifetime!
