Our Moroccan adventure begins in Fes! After breakfast, we head south towards the Merzouga desert. Along the way, we’ll break in the charming town of Ifrane and explore a cedar forest, where you might see playful Barbary apes. We’ll refuel with lunch before entering the stunning Ziz Valley, known for its lush palm groves.

In the afternoon, the real magic starts! We embark on a traditional camel caravan through the mesmerizing Erg Chebbi sand dunes. As the sun dips below the horizon, we’ll stop to capture the breathtaking views from a high dune. Our camel trek leads us to a luxurious desert camp, where you’ll have your own private tent to relax in. After a delicious dinner of local flavors, we’ll gather around a crackling bonfire under a sky filled with stars. Get ready for lively drumming, beautiful Berber music, and maybe even learn to play the drums yourself for an unforgettable evening!
