A visit to the iconic Jemaa el-Faa square, the city’s bustling heart, offers a glimpse into Marrakech’s lively ambiance. Consider having dinner at one of the square’s restaurants before returning to your delightful Riad for a restful night’s sleep.
DAY 2: MARRAKECH – HIGH ATLAS MOUNTAINS – AIT BEN HADDOU KASBAH – OUARZAZATE – DADES VALLEY
Commence your desert expedition from Marrakech to Merzouga with a convenient pickup directly from your Riad. Leave the bustling city behind as you journey southeastward, traversing the scenic High Atlas mountains. Along the way, you will encounter charming Berber villages and have opportunities to capture stunning photographs from picturesque viewpoints.
Savor a delightful lunch at Ait Ben Haddou village, a UNESCO-listed treasure famed for its ancient Kasbah. This historic “fortified village” has served as a backdrop for iconic movies like Prince of Persia, Gladiator, and the famous TV series Game of Thrones.
Following a brief stop in Ouarzazate, home to Africa’s largest studio, you can opt for a visit if interested. Then, continue your journey towards Dades Gorge, passing through the enchanting Valley of Roses en route. In the Dades Valley, marvel at incredible rock formations famously called “monkey fingers” and enjoy a panoramic vista of the Gorge and the valley before retiring to your hotel for a restful night.

On your way to the mesmerizing Merzouga desert, our experienced driver/guide will suggest a stop at a traditional Berber shop. Here, you can immerse yourself in Berber culture by trying on traditional outfits and capturing memorable photographs, all without any additional cost. If you are interested, you can also browse through desert essentials like scarves or unique souvenirs. However, there is no pressure to make purchases; the shop visit is primarily an option to promote the Berber culture. If you prefer to continue without stopping at the shop, just let your guide know, and we will proceed uninterrupted.
Upon arrival in Merzouga, get ready for an unforgettable camel ride into the heart of the desert. Witness the captivating sunset over the sand dunes and indulge in the thrilling activity of sandboarding. As night falls, retreat to a luxurious desert camp where a tasty dinner awaits.
