This 3-day Marrakech to Merzouga tour was one of the best travel experiences I’ve had in Morocco. Everything was well organized from start to finish. The long drive never felt boring because we stopped in many great places, including Ait Benhaddou and the Todra Gorge. Each stop had something unique to offer.

The desert camp exceeded my expectations—the tents were clean, the beds were comfortable, and the team made sure everyone felt at home. The sunrise over the dunes was magical and absolutely worth waking up early for. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants a mix of adventure, culture, and relaxation.

I booked the 3-day tour from Marrakech to Merzouga with high expectations, and it turned out to be even better than I imagined. The journey through the High Atlas Mountains was breathtaking—every turn revealed new landscapes and small Berber villages full of charm. Our guide was incredibly kind and knowledgeable, sharing stories and history along the way.

The highlight, of course, was riding a camel through the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi at sunset. The colors felt unreal, like a painting. Spending the night in the desert camp was peaceful, comfortable, and beautifully arranged. We enjoyed delicious Moroccan food, live music around the fire, and a sky full of stars. If you’re looking for an authentic Moroccan desert experience, this tour is worth every moment.
