Our goal is to provide a well-planned 2 days Marrakech Sahara tour that lets you enjoy every moment of the adventure, creating lasting memories instead of spending most of your time on the road.
Your 2 days Zagora desert tour begins with an early morning pickup from your accommodation or Marrakech Airport. Leaving the city behind, you’ll travel through the spectacular High Atlas Mountains via the famous Tizi n’Tichka Pass (2,260 m), the highest mountain pass in Morocco. Along the way, several scenic stops allow you to admire the panoramic views, traditional Berber villages, and dramatic mountain landscapes.
Your first major stop is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ait Ben Haddou, Morocco’s most famous fortified village. Explore its ancient earthen architecture and discover why it has served as the backdrop for renowned productions such as Gladiator, Lawrence of Arabia, and Game of Thrones.
After free time for lunch in Ait Ben Haddou or Ouarzazate, continue your journey through the Anti-Atlas Mountains and the beautiful Draa Valley, home to Morocco’s longest river and one of the country’s largest palm oases. Passing through Agdez and traditional villages, you’ll arrive in the Zagora Desert during the afternoon.
From here, enjoy a peaceful camel trek across the desert as the sun begins to set over the dunes. At your traditional desert camp, you’ll be welcomed with a delicious Moroccan dinner before spending the evening around the campfire, listening to Berber music and relaxing beneath a sky filled with stars.
Wake up early to experience one of the Sahara’s most memorable moments—the sunrise over the desert. After breakfast at the camp, leave Zagora and begin the return journey to Marrakech.
Travel once again through the scenic Draa Valley and Ouarzazate, with opportunities to stop for photos and short breaks along the way. Crossing the High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi n’Tichka Pass, you’ll enjoy the changing landscapes before arriving back in Marrakech in the late afternoon or early evening.
Your 2 days Zagora desert tour concludes with a drop-off at your accommodation or Marrakech Airport, leaving you with unforgettable memories of Morocco’s mountains, kasbahs, palm valleys, and the magical Zagora Desert.
