Day-by-Day Detailed Itinerary

Day 1

Errachidia Airport to Merzouga Camp

Receive a warm personal welcome at Errachidia Moulay Ali Cherif Airport (ERH) from your private chauffeur. Enjoy one of southern Morocco's most scenic drives southward along the lush ribbon of date palms filling the dramatic Ziz Valley oasis, passing fossil-rich Erfoud and historic Rissani before arriving at the soaring golden dunes of Erg Chebbi in Merzouga for a sunset camel ride into your private luxury desert camp.

Day 2

Deep Desert 4x4 Safari & Culture

Spend a magical full day immersed in the landscapes and living traditions of the Merzouga Sahara! Set out by private 4x4 across the Erg Chebbi dunes to share sweet mint tea with a nomadic Amazigh family, enjoy an uplifting live performance of spiritual Gnawa music in Khamlia village, and savor authentic Saharan lunch in a palm oasis. Return in the late afternoon for optional sandboarding, sunset photography over the highest dunes, and another peaceful night in the Sahara.

Day 3

Merzouga to Ziz Valley to Errachidia

Savor an unforgettable sunrise atop the golden dunes outside your tent followed by a relaxed gourmet breakfast and hot shower at camp. Return to Merzouga village by camel or 4x4, pause to browse the traditional caravan market of Rissani or panoramic viewpoints overlooking the lush Ziz Valley palm oasis, and transfer smoothly in private comfort to Errachidia Airport (ERH) in plenty of time for your flight.
