Detailed Itinerary for 2-Day Sahara Tour

Day 1: Fes ⇢ Ifrane ⇢ Middle Atlas Mountains ⇢ Ziz Valley ⇢ Merzouga (500 km)

Your 2 days desert tour from Fes to Marrakech begins with a pickup from your riad in Fes. From there, you’ll travel toward the Sahara Desert, with your first stop in Ifrane, often called the “Switzerland of Morocco” due to its cool climate and alpine-like architecture. Next, you’ll journey through the Middle Atlas Mountains, making a stop in a cedar forest, where you may spot Barbary monkeys in their natural habitat.

Lunch will be enjoyed at a local restaurant along the way. Afterward, you’ll continue along the Ziz Valley, an impressive oasis filled with palm trees, where you’ll pause at a scenic viewpoint to take in the stunning panorama.

In the afternoon, you’ll reach Merzouga, the gateway to the Sahara Desert, where your camel ride adventure begins. Your guide will introduce you to your camel, and you’ll set off on a camel ride in the Sahara across the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi. The slow, peaceful camel trek takes around 1 to 1.5 hours, and midway you can stop to climb a high dune and watch a breathtaking sunset over the sand.

When you arrive at your luxury desert camp, the staff will welcome you with mint tea and show you to your private tent, where you can unwind and freshen up. After a delicious traditional dinner, a bonfire is lit, and you’ll enjoy Berber music and drumming under a sky full of stars. Overnight in the Sahara Desert camp.

Day 2: Merzouga ⇢ Ait Ben Haddou ⇢ High Atlas Mountains ⇢ Marrakech (560 km)

Start the day early to enjoy the peaceful beauty of a desert sunrise. After a hearty breakfast, you’ll leave the camp in a 4×4 vehicle, driving back to Merzouga before setting off on your long journey to Marrakech. Along the way, you’ll stop at several key points.

One of the highlights will be Ait Benhaddou Kasbah, an iconic fortified village that has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987. This ancient village has been featured in numerous famous films and TV series, such as The Mummy, Prince of Persia, and Game of Thrones. You’ll have the chance to take some memorable photos of this historic site.

Afterward, you’ll continue the drive, crossing the High Atlas Mountains with several stops to capture panoramic views of the stunning landscape. When your guide drops you off at your Marrakech hotel or riad, your 2-day desert tour from Fes to Marrakech comes to an end.

      Great Affordable Private Tour of the Sahara Desert We had a great experience with this company on our recent trip to Morocco. Mohammed (the owner of the company) was very responsive during the booking process and worked very hard to let all the appropriate people know about my husband's food allergies. Mohammed (our tour guide) was also wonderful. We did a 3 night/4 day tour from Morocco to Fes via the Sahara desert that involved a lot of driving. I am usually a nervous passenger, but I felt very safe and not concerned when driving around Morocco. When there was free time, he made suggestions for things we could do, but we were able to make decisions about what we wanted to do, etc. He made arrangements for us to ride ATVs the second night we were in the desert and that ended up being one of our favorite experiences of the trip. The food on this tour was fabulous and Mohammed made sure to find good options for us for lunch. We also made frequent stops for bathroom breaks and to stretch our legs while driving. The hotels we stayed at were amazing, especially the hotel in Dades and the luxury desert camp. We were originally planning to do two nights at the desert camp, so we were disappointed to hear that we were going back to a hotel for the third night, but the company explained why they were suggesting that we go to a hotel (heat-related reasons) and gave us the option to stay at the camp or do the hotel. We ended up going to the hotel once we understood the reasoning behind this. When coming to Morocco, it is totally worth the time to make it all the way to the Sahara. Riding a camel to the desert camp and being in the dunes was amazing and there is nothing like it in the world. Advisor Morocco Tours is an affordable option that made this possible for our family of 4.

      A Trip That Stole Our Heart My sister and I had an incredible 10-day trip around Morocco, and it was amazing from start to finish. ⭐️ A special thank you to our driver, Mohammed, who made the journey so enjoyable. He is an excellent driver, always made us feel safe, recommended some fantastic local restaurants, and even let me play my favorite songs during our long drives, which made the road trips even more fun. ⭐️ The highlight of the trip was definitely the Sahara Desert. Riding the camels, spending the night at the camp, and sitting outside under the moon was simply magical. ✨ It is a memory I will cherish forever. ❤️ Every destination had its own unique beauty. Casablanca was my favorite city, with the Sahara being my favorite overall experience. I also really enjoyed Fes, especially the local guided tour with Hassan. He shared so much about Morocco’s history and culture, and I learned a lot. ⭐️ This was one of the best trips I’ve ever taken! Morocco is beautiful, it has truly captured my heart, and I will definitely be back. And if I return, I would choose to travel with Mohammed again without a second thought. He was kind, respectful, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared that we had a great time. We always felt safe, well looked after, and welcomed. Thank you for the wonderful memories. I highly recommend this company!⭐️

      Fantastic experience!! We were a family of 4, 2 adults and 2 children aged 13 and 9. The experience was awesome. Planning with Mohammed via email was super easy.. So easy that upon paying the deposit I was scared we were being scammed as the whole process was extremely easy, the deposit low and they were very accommodating with our wishes. But it was anything but a scam! Our holiday was perfectly planned, the hotels and riads were comfortable and clean and close to main attractions. The guide Hamid and drivers Mohammed ansd Ibrahim were very helpful with great tips on what to see and do and we also got to eat in local places getting the true Moroccan exerience. All the trip was very well planned and we strongly recommend this agency for a relaxing, hassle free holiday in Morocco.

      A wonderful adventure through Morocco 9 fun days from Tangier to Marrakech with Mohammed. He took us from the blue city of Chefchaouen to the fascinating medina of Fes, to the amazing Sahara desert, across the Atlas mountains to Marrakech. Mohammed is a great ambassador of his country, he is chill and reliable. Mohammed designed the itinerary for our trip and we loved it. Will absolutely recommend Mohammed to anyone who wants a fun and care free trip. Mohammed was also very gracious to be our guide during Ramadan.

      Highly recommend! I went on a 5 day tour and I can only say that it was really good. As a solo female Im very careful but Muhammad made me feel really safe. I had given the itinerary that I wanted and had completely left everything on them to do. They planned out everything. I loved the riads. The tour guide,Ahmed, in Fes was amazing. My favorite part was camping in the desert. It was absolutely amazing. Muhammad was very accommodating. He tried to answer all the questions that I had. Let me play my music as much as I wanted on the radio. Took my pictures. I would highly recommend them over and over again.

      Our Moroccan tour was truly unforgettable — a perfect blend of culture, adventure, and breathtaking landscapes. From the colorful souks of Marrakech to the winding streets of Fes, every stop felt like stepping into a storybook. The highlight, without a doubt, was our journey into the Sahara Desert with our tour guide Hamid. Riding camels over golden dunes at sunset was an experience beyond words — peaceful, surreal, and absolutely stunning. Spending the night in a desert camp under a blanket of stars was pure magic. The hospitality of our Berber hosts made it even more special; they shared music, stories, and delicious traditional meals that we’ll never forget. Our guide was exceptional — knowledgeable, kind, and passionate about sharing Morocco’s rich history and traditions. The entire trip was well-organized, comfortable, and full of authentic experiences. If you’re looking for a destination that touches your heart and soul, Morocco — especially the Sahara — should be at the top of your list. It’s not just a trip, it’s a journey you’ll carry with you forever.

      8 Days / 7 Nights Tour from Marrakech to Marrakech – Amazing Experience! We (my husband and I) recently completed an unforgettable 8-day tour with Advisor Morocco Tours, starting and ending in Marrakech. The entire itinerary was custom-designed by Mohammed, and it took us through some of the most stunning and diverse landscapes Morocco has to offer. From Marrakech, we traveled through the majestic Atlas Mountains, visited Ouarzazate, and explored the magical Sahara Desert in Merzouga—where we enjoyed a camel ride, a thrilling jeep tour, and an unforgettable night in a desert camp under the stars. We then continued through the cedar forests, where we encountered wild monkeys, and visited the cultural heart of Morocco: Fes, the stunning blue city of Chefchaouen, the capital Rabat, and finally Casablanca. From start to finish, the experience was smooth, worry-free, and absolutely memorable. Mohammed—our guide, driver, and as we joked, “babysitter”—was simply fantastic. He speaks excellent English and made us feel welcome, comfortable, and safe at every moment of the trip. We trusted all of his accommodation suggestions, and he truly listened to our preferences. The riads and hotels he selected were perfect—often with pools, breakfast included, and close to parking. There was always someone to help with luggage, and we never once felt lost or unsure of where to go. In the larger cities, Mohammed arranged for professional, licensed guides to give us walking tours—each one knowledgeable and engaging. He also recommended restaurants that perfectly matched our tastes and even helped us find local supermarkets or family-owned shops when needed. All in all, we wholeheartedly recommend Mohammed and Advisor Morocco Tours. His attention to detail and genuine care helped make our trip to Morocco truly special. Thank you, Mohammed, for everything—it was a wonderful journey! ❤️
