Marrakech-Sahara Dunes Round Trip
Cross the Atlas Mountains, pass kasbahs and gorges to the Erg Chebbi dunes, and spend the night in a tented camp.
The most common short desert route on the market, covering about 1,100 km in three days. The driving times on Days 1 and 3 are very long, but they reward you with a night at a dune camp. Sights along the way, such as Aït Benhaddou, Dades Gorges, and Todra Gorge, are only quick stops. This is suitable for first-time visitors short on time who do not mind long drives; for a more relaxed pace, add an extra night in the desert.
The desert is extremely hot in midsummer, while mountain passes can be snowy in winter with very low night temperatures.
