Zagora Desert: 2-Day Trip from Marrakesh

Begin your journey with a breathtaking drive through the High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi n’Tichka pass. Along the way, stop to explore the iconic Ait Ben Haddou, a UNESCO World Heritage site and filming location for many famous movies.

Note: In shared tours, the local guide at Ait Ben Haddou is optional and costs around 2€ per person.

Continue south through the Draa Valley, known for its endless palm groves, fortified villages, and ancient kasbahs. Arrive in Zagora Desert in the late afternoon, where you'll enjoy a camel ride into the dunes at sunset. Spend the night in a traditional desert camp, complete with dinner, Berber music, and stargazing around the fire.
