Your unforgettable Fes to Marrakech 3 days begins with a morning pick-up from accommodation in Fes. Accompanied by your professional driver, you will set off on a scenic journey through Morocco’s diverse landscapes, where every stop reveals a new chapter of the country’s natural beauty and cultural heritage.
Our first destination is the charming town of Ifrane, often referred to as the “Switzerland of Morocco” for its alpine-style architecture, immaculate streets, and cool mountain climate. Surrounded by cedar forests and rolling hills, Ifrane offers a refreshing contrast to Morocco’s imperial cities. Not far away, you will visit the famous cedar forest of the Middle Atlas, home to the iconic Barbary macaques.
Continuing south, you will travel through the town of Midelt – renowned for its apple orchards and breathtaking Atlas scenery, before crossing the spectacular landscapes of the Middle and High Atlas Mountains. Along the way, you will stop at the panoramic Ziz Valley, where thousands of date palms create one of Morocco’s most impressive oasis landscapes—an ideal location for memorable pictures.
The trip then carries on to Erfoud, widely recognised as the gateway to the Sahara Desert and Morocco’s fossil capital, before arriving in Merzouga Sahara Desert, on the edge of the magnificent Erg Chebbi dunes.
Here, the real desert adventure truly begins. Exchange your vehicle for a camel ride and embark on a memorable trek across the golden dunes, taking in the ever-changing colours of the desert as the sun sets over the horizon. Upon reaching your carefully selected luxury desert camp, you will be welcomed with traditional Moroccan hospitality before enjoying a delicious dinner in an unforgettable desert setting.
