Fes Desert Tours 2 Days to Merzouga: A Journey into the Heart of the Sahara
Embark on a Memorable Desert Adventure
Experience the magic of the Moroccan Sahara with a 2-day desert tour from Fes to the stunning dunes of Merzouga. This short but exhilarating journey offers a glimpse into the vast beauty of the desert landscape and a taste of nomadic life, all while uncovering the rich culture and history of the region.
Day 1: Fes to Merzouga – Into the Desert Realm
Your journey begins in the ancient city of Fes, one of Morocco’s most enchanting imperial cities. Depart early and travel south towards the desert. The route takes you through the Middle Atlas Mountains, where you’ll pass by charming Berber villages, lush valleys, and cedar forests, home to Barbary apes.
As you continue, the landscape begins to change, and the first signs of the desert appear. Stop at the Ziz Valley for a panoramic view of the palm groves and the vast oasis that stretches out to the horizon. Arrive in Merzouga in the late afternoon, where the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi loom in the distance.
In Merzouga, embark on a camel trek, the traditional mode of transport in the desert. Your guide will lead you deep into the heart of the dunes to witness an unforgettable sunset. Spend the night in a desert camp, where you’ll enjoy a traditional dinner, perhaps some Berber music around the campfire, and a night under the starry Saharan sky.
Day 2: Merzouga to Fes – Return Journey
Wake up early to catch the sunrise over the dunes, a serene and awe-inspiring start to the day. After breakfast in the desert camp, bid farewell to the Sahara and begin the journey back to Fes. The return trip gives you more time to absorb the landscapes you may have missed on the way down, including the dramatic vistas of the Atlas Mountains.
Arrive back in Fes by the late afternoon or evening. This short but sweet tour concludes with a drop-off at your hotel or riad, leaving you with memories of the desert that will last a lifetime.
