A 3-day tour reaches Merzouga and the Erg Chebbi dunes, but it means two long driving days for one full day in the desert. It suits travellers who are short on time and prioritise seeing large dunes over adding valley or kasbah stops. If you'd rather slow the pace, compare longer routes on Tours Packages.

Choose Merzouga for the largest dunes at Erg Chebbi; choose Zagora for a shorter route through the Draa Valley's oasis scenery. The two are genuinely different trips, not variations of the same route. See how both compare nationally on Morocco Desert Tours.

It's a full day of driving each way on the classic route via Tizi n'Tichka and Ouarzazate, more if you add stops in the Dades or Draa valleys. A multi-day itinerary spreads that driving out with breaks rather than doing it in one push. Compare the duration options in the table above or on Tours Packages.

Yes, several Marrakech departures are built as one-way (open-jaw) routes that end in Fes instead of returning to Marrakech, passing through Ouarzazate and Merzouga along the way. See the open-jaw option on the Marrakech to Fes via the Grand South route above.

A private vehicle, driver, and named accommodation or desert camp for each night are the core inclusions on every route here, with meals and activities varying by itinerary. For a tailored inclusion list for your dates
