Itinerary

This 3-Day Sahara Desert Tour from Marrakech To Erg Chigaga is the perfect tour for travelers short on time but who want a unique and comprehensive desert experience. Get deep into the dunes and escape from modern civilization!

The trip starts with a pick-up from your hotel or Riad in Marrakech at 8:00 am to head south for the magnificent High Atlas Mountains. You cross the Tizin-Tichka pass, (2660m) the highest pass in North Africa. You will be amazed by the panoramas and will want to take memorable photos. Simply tell your driver where you want to stop.

Along the way, you will visit the former presidential palace, Kasbah Telouet, and the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou. These are the two most famous kasbahs in Morocco and are an essential part of any desert tour. Before arriving in Ouarzazate, you can visit the Atlas Film Studios, and see the sets of many Hollywood films still in place here.

That night, you will have the thrill of spending the night in a traditional rural riad or an authentic guesthouse in Agdez, a small town just at the head of the Dra'a valley, which descends towards the desert. You'll get the distinct impression that you are on your way to a different world - new and exciting. With a local guide to explain the history, you have the option of visiting the largest of the hundreds of kasbahs in the valley, namely Kasbah Tamnougalt.

From there, the thrill increases as you pull off the road through the Draa Valley, past ancient kasbahs and lush green oases. This is part of the old route of the caravans that carried goods from Mali and Niger after crossing the Sahara for days.

After reaching the largest city before the Sahara, Zagora, visit the cooperative of the famous nationwide green pottery and the Koranic library with its magnificent manuscripts and have a cutting-edge experience riding a camel in the dunes of Erg Chegaga.

At night under the astonishing array of stars, you will sleep in a comfortable luxury camp in the desert at the foot of the largest dunes of the Sahara in Morocco. The next day, the wonder continues as you drive off-road in the Sahara Desert, hunt for fossils in the dry lake of Iriqui, and learn about Berber carpet-making techniques in Taznakht.

Explore the majesty and wonder of our very unique range of Marrakech Desert Tours. Discover the tour itinerary below. Your journey begins here!

Incredible Moroccan Sahara

We recently completed this tour, and it was an absolutely mesmerizing experience. From the moment we left Marrakech, we were taken on a journey through some of Morocco's most stunning landscapes, including the majestic High Atlas Mountains, the UNESCO-listed Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, and the vast, serene dunes of Erg Chigaga. The drive was long but scenic, and every stop offered a chance to appreciate Morocco’s history and natural beauty, from ancient kasbahs to lush oases. Spending the night in the desert under a blanket of stars was a highlight—our camp was luxurious, with comfortable beds and an authentic Moroccan ambiance. Riding camels across the dunes at sunset was an unforgettable experience. A huge part of what made this tour so special was our driver, Hakim. He was not only an excellent driver but also a fantastic guide, sharing his extensive knowledge of Morocco’s history, culture, and geography. Hakim made us feel safe and well-cared for throughout the entire journey, and his friendly demeanor and sense of humor added a personal touch to the trip. His expert driving skills ensured a smooth and comfortable ride, even on the rough desert roads, and he was always ready to make stops for photo opportunities or interesting landmarks. Overall, this tour was a perfect blend of adventure, culture, and relaxation, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore the Sahara in style.

My story

This 3-day trip from Marrakech into the remote dunes of Erg Chigaga was nothing short of enchanting. This tour operator crafted an unforgettable desert experience that combined the best adventure, culture, and breathtaking scenery. In only a short period of time outside of the vibrant streets of Marrakech, we found ourselves amidst the wild beauty of Morocco, passing by small villages and historic kasbahs en-route. Every stop brought us one step closer to the heart of the country, while our driver, Hakim, provided interesting insights into local customs and desert life that made every moment richer. Reaching Erg Chigaga was a dream come true: riding camels at sunset and watching the sand turn gold under the dying light, night spent in the desert camp seemed lifted from a storybook. The camp was both comfortable and authentic at the same time, whereas the politeness of the staff made us feel welcome and at ease. We had music and stories under the star-filled sky of the night, completely imbued with the magic of the Sahara. We couldn't have asked for more with this perfectly curated trip-into-the-sand dunes. If someone wants a truly genuine and well-planned desert expedition, this tour is highly recommended. It left us with memories that we'll carry forever.

Journey of a lifetime

My desert adventure from Marrakech to Erg Chigaga was truly a journey of a lifetime. The trip was perfectly organized, taking us from the lively streets of Marrakech through the rugged beauty of the Atlas Mountains, and into the vast, silent Sahara. Each stop along the way was well-planned and offered unique experiences—from visiting traditional Berber villages and historical kasbahs to tasting local Moroccan cuisine in authentic settings. The highlight was reaching the remote Erg Chigaga dunes, where we rode camels into the heart of the Sahara at sunset and spent a magical night in a desert camp under a sky full of stars. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe throughout the journey. This tour company exceeded my expectations, and I’d recommend them to anyone who wants to discover Morocco’s desert in an immersive, unforgettable way.

Memorable Desert Escape to Erg Chigaga Sahara Morocco

Wow, our 3-day tour in the desert from Marrakech to Erg Chigaga was absolutely unforgettable! Sceneries were breathtaking-from the High Atlas Mountains to the great dunes of Erg Chigaga. The night spent on the desert camp in the stars was something peculiarly special. Other historical stops, such as Ait Ben Haddou, added much cultural value to the whole trip. While the itinerary was full of amazing experiences, some of the drives were quite long and tiring at times, but that's part of the adventure!

Highly Recommend and Would Book Again

Khalil was the ideal guide for our three-day excursion. I can't recommend this experience highly enough and would book it again in a heartbeat. Expect to spend some time in the car, but the journey is filled with captivating stops at stunning locations. The views along the way are breathtaking, and the night spent in the desert is one of the most mesmerizing experiences I've ever had. This adventure is absolutely worth it, and I would gladly do it all over again!
