Sahara desert landscape with sand dunes in Morocco

Sahara Desert Tours From Fez

Sunset over the desert dunes in Merzouga, Morocco

Our Morocco Desert services are carefully planned to let you get a taste of the real culture of ancient Morocco. We organize multiday desert tours from Fes with a length that varies from 2 to 9 days, depending on your preferences, including our popular 3-day desert tour from Fes and 4-day desert tour from Fes. The longer your Fes Desert tours are, the better you’ll get to experience the vibrant culture of Morocco.

Our Fes Desert tours offer more than just exploring the Sahara. Many cities between Fes and Merzouga are just waiting for your visit. After leaving the Imperial city of Fes, you’ll travel through the Middle Atlas Mountains and be restored by their fresh and calming atmosphere in cities like Ifrane, also known as the “Switzerland of Morocco” because of its wintry weather all year round and its richly designed and decorated European-styled buildings, on top of its enchanting gardens and quiet forests full of charming streams and waterfalls. Our Fes desert tours will then bring you to the former capital of the Berber communities in the Middle Atlas Mountains, the city of Azrou. It’s one of the most significant and dazzling Berber towns, known for the lush Cedar forests, home to the lively Barbary Macaque monkeys.

As we move south, we’ll cross cities like Midelt, famous for its delicious apples and abundance of minerals, before finally getting a glimpse of the huge palm trees of the Ziz valley as we head towards Erfoud. From Erfoud, our desert tours from Fes continue to Merzouga and the dunes of Erg Chebbi, passing through the unforgettable landscapes of the gorges and valleys of Dades and Todgha, where we will stop to let you enjoy the unprecedented scenery of the carved valleys. Another stop will be in the city of Ouarzazate, which you might recognize from legendary movies and shows like Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven, and Game of Thrones. This city is very much loved by filmmakers all over the world, and it’s also the home to North Africa’s biggest film studio, “Atlas Studios”, which is a well-known name in the cinema industry.


Our Fes desert tours will then bring you to the famous Kasbahs of Ait BenHadou, a fortified village of the Berber people and one of Morocco’s most well-preserved monuments. You might have seen the Kasbah in many famous media, as it was used as a set for several movies and tv shows. Once in Merzouga, you’ll experience a thrilling camel trek through the golden sea of dunes of Erg Chebbi and then spend the night in a luxurious desert camp where you can fully enjoy the enchanting atmosphere of the Sahara desert.


Only our Sahara desert tours let you experience the magical feeling of watching the sun rise and set in the desert, and also give you the chance to think back on your journey and dream of your future ones under a blanket of shining stars. From the dunes of Erg Chebbi, you can choose whether you want to continue your trip to visit the city of Marrakech or go back to Fes immediately. Our itineraries for Fes desert tours don’t stop there; we have many more in store for you, and we’re always available to organize the tour that best fits your needs and budget.

Nothing like a trip to the Sahara will give you the best insight into the daily life of Berber nomads and enrich your cultural knowledge of Morocco’s history and heritage. Also, the beauty of the Sahara sunrise and sunset is a sight you won’t get to experience anywhere else in the world.

Musafeh, our tour guide was a wealth of knowledge, knew his way around town and very patient as we explored the souks, museum and garden. He guided us safely through the souks. He was very interactive with us through conversations and helped us with the merchants. Top 10 service.

    star rating  Family fun in Morocco  - I could not be more delighted with the service that we received from this company from the day we booked it to the day we were dropped at the airport.... read more We were a party of 12. Nine of my grandchildren plus their partners (all in their 20’s) plus 3 other family members.
    We were met on time by our fantastic driver Ibrahim who stayed with us all week. Our vehicle was a brand new Mercedes mini-bus. We also had different guides to some of the more historic places. Our travels took us from Marrakech to The Atlas Mountains, Sahara desert, Casablanca, Fez and Essaouira. We have unforgettable memories of camel riding into the sunset and dancing to Berber musicians infront of a fire pit late into the night.
    The accomodation was outstanding in old, picturesque Riads everywhere (except luxury tents .with proper bathrooms . in the desert).
    I cannot recommend this company too highly. We received exactly what was promised and they were always flexible if we needed to make a change.
    Ofcourse, it’s helpful to have words of warning. There were some very long days of driving as we covered a lot of territory. This is not a choice for the less fit. Lots of steep stairs, not always with hand rails. . But I am 84 and I made it.
    Also, don’t travel with checked in luggage. You don’t need many clothes and it’s easier to carry small cases.
    This is our experience of just one of the many tours run by this excellent company. Good luck.
