2-Day Sahara Desert Tour from Marrakech to Zagora

Your adventure begins with an early morning pick-up at 8:00 AM from your accommodation in Marrakech. Travel through the winding roads of the High Atlas Mountains, passing picturesque Berber villages along the way. Stop at the famous Tizi n’Tichka Pass (2,260m) for breathtaking panoramic views.

Arrive at the legendary Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its impressive architecture and appearances in blockbuster films like Gladiator and Game of Thrones. After a guided tour, enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant with views of the kasbah.

Continue your journey through the Draa Valley, passing the dramatic landscapes of the Tizi N’tanifeft Pass and the village of Agdz. Upon arrival in Zagora, you’ll be welcomed with traditional mint tea before embarking on a mesmerizing camel trek through the desert. Witness the sun setting over the dunes before settling into your Berber camp for a night of authentic Moroccan cuisine, music, and storytelling beneath a starry sky.

Wake up early to watch the sunrise over the Zagora dunes—a truly magical sight. After breakfast at the camp, ride your camel back to the village before beginning your return journey.

En route, visit the historic Kasbah Tamnougalt, an ancient fortress nestled in the Draa Valley. Continue towards Ouarzazate, where you’ll explore the impressive Kasbah Taourirt and, if time permits, visit the renowned film studios where Hollywood blockbusters were filmed.

After a leisurely lunch in Ouarzazate, travel back through the High Atlas Mountains, arriving in Marrakech by late afternoon. Your driver will drop you off at your accommodation, concluding your incredible 2-day desert adventure.
