About the Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour

A private round trip from Fes with more time in the desert than the 2-day tour. You spend the first night in a luxury camp in the Erg Chebbi dunes and the second night in a hotel in Merzouga.

The middle day is a tour of the Merzouga area: old irrigation tunnels, an oasis farm, Khamlia village, seasonal lakes and the black desert. On the last day you drive back to Fes through Midelt and the Middle Atlas.

Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour Itinerary

Day-by-day plan of this private desert tour from Fes and back, over 3 days.

Day 1 · Fes, Ifrane, Midelt, Ziz Valley, Merzouga

Your 3 days from Fes to Merzouga start at 8 am. We drive south through Ifrane, with its cool air and European-style houses, without stopping, then on through Midelt, the Ziz Valley and the Ziz Gorge. We stop in the Ziz oasis to look at the palm groves and the view, then pass Erfoud, Rissani and several Berber villages. After some rest in Merzouga you ride a camel into the golden dunes of the Sahara to watch the sunset. You spend the night in a luxury desert camp in the Erg Chebbi dunes, with Moroccan drum music under the moonlight.

After breakfast and the sunrise over the dunes, we spend the day exploring the area around Merzouga. We visit the old khettara water channels, a farm in the oasis, the Dayet Srji lake, the village of Khamlia, Mfis, Hassi Labied, Lake Yasmina, an abandoned mining village and the black desert. Along the way you learn about the daily life of the Berber people and the history of the region. In the afternoon your driver takes you to your hotel, where you have dinner and spend the second night.

On the last day you can get up early for the sunrise. After breakfast and some time to relax we take the road back to Fes. On the way we pass through Errachidia and stop in Midelt, a small town known for its minerals and fossils, where you can have lunch. Then we continue through the mountains and the green landscapes of the Middle Atlas and reach Fes in the late afternoon.

4 days Luxury tour from Fes to Marrakesh

The whole experience was excellent, it was stress free and easy. From booking to pick up, tour and hotels were all excellent. Our driver/guide Ayoub was very helpful and accommodating. He was a very thoughtful and careful driver. He explained things, culture and places of interests to us throughout the trip. He also goes out of his way to help us at the end of our tour when getting to the hotel that I booked myself in Marrakesh . We did have a different guide on the second day of the desert doing the 4x4 expereince and he was also excellent. I highly recommend booking with Fes Luxury tour and using their service. Their cars were very comfortable and clean. It makes life so much easier. The hotel choices were also very good. Thank you for making our trip so much more enjoyable and stress free for us. If it hadn't been with Ayoub, I don't think we would had been able to navigate through the mayhem of the Rissini Sunday Market, it was interesting to see a real local market in action from farm cattles to produce to herbs to Toys, clothes , artesanía and daily white goods. What an eye opener.

12-days private tour in Morocco

Thank you to Siu Ha @ Fez Luxury Tour for the perfect arrangements! We thoroughly enjoyed our 12-days private tour in Morocco. Every attraction was unforgettable, especially riding ATVs and camels, and seeing a sky full of stars in the Sahara Desert. Each Riad and hotel had its own unique charm, and the staff were all extremely friendly. A huge shout-out to our driver, Hafid, his driving skills were exceptional. The seats in the van were clean and very comfortable, making the whole trip enjoyable for all of us. Even though the long-distance drives were lengthy, we didn't feel uncomfortable at all. On the road, various unexpected situations arose, but his high level of skill helped us avoid potential accidents, and his safe driving gave us absolute peace of mind. Although our trip to Morocco has come to an end, we are still reminiscing about the wonderful memories. Highly recommended!

Morocco highlights

A very enjoyable and hassle-free 10-day private tour covering Asilah, Tangier, Chefchaouen, Fes, Casablanca, Rabat, Marrakech, and Essaouira. Thank you to Siu Ha @ Fez Luxury Tour for the perfect arrangements! Our driver, Hafid, moved us between cities safely in a clean and comfortable new van whist sharing fascinating history and culture along the drive. The tour also included local guides who showed us around the Medinas in Fes and Marrakech, successfully leading us through the mazes! Without them, we might have been stuck in there forever. 😅 This was a fantastic taster of Morocco. If I return to Morocco in the future, I will definitely use Fez Luxury Tour service again, using Marrakech as a base, and to include an overnight stay in the Sahara Desert!

Unforgettable trip to Morocco

Just got back from a fantastic 10-day trip starting in Casablanca and hitting all the highlights like the Blue City, Fez, the Sahara, and Marrakech. The Riad and Hotels they arranged for us are also very nice and comfortable. Huge thanks to our amazing driver, Hafid, who made our journey so enjoyable. Hafid was incredibly polite, attentive, and helpful with everything we needed. The Van was always clean and very comfortable for our group of four. We had a brilliant time and would highly recommend this agency and Hafid to anyone planning a trip to Morocco!
