2 days from Fes to Desert Tours

Day 1: Fes – Ifrane – Cedars Forest – Midelt – Ziz Valley – Merzouga Sahara

The 2-day Morocco Sahara desert tour starts with an early pick-up from your accommodation or the airport in Fes. We will drive south through Imouzzer to visit Ifrane, which is famous for its low temperature, snow, and alpine-style houses – no wonder it is called the Switzerland of Morocco. After that, we will head to the cedars forest, which is home to the Barbary Macaques. You can feed them while wandering in the forest. Later, we will continue to Midelt, where lunch will be served. We will then proceed to the Sahara desert, driving through the Tizi-n-Tilghmt pass and along the Ziz River. In the afternoon, we will reach the Sahara desert of Merzouga. Then, we will switch to camels and cross the sandy desert. After that, we will stop so you can enjoy the magical sunset on top of a high dune. We will then continue to the desert camp, where you can enjoy Berber drums music while dancing around the campfire under the vast open sky of stars. Dinner and overnight stay at the camp.

Day 2: Merzouga – Rissani – Erfoud – Ziz Valley – Ifrane – Fes

Wake up early in the morning to witness the beautiful sunrise in the middle of the desert. After breakfast, return on camels to Merzouga, where the driver awaits. Then, we will leave the desert and head to Erfoud town. In Erfoud, you will visit one of the workshops on fossilized marble. After that, we will drive along the Ziz River, and we will stop for a panoramic view of the Ziz Valley. Then, we will drive through the Cedars forest and Ifrane to reach Fes. Finally, we will drop you off at the airport or your accommodation. End of the tour.
