Circuit 4 jours Désert de Merzouga

Destinations: Merzouga, Ouarzazate, Aït Ben Haddou, Dades Valley, Todra Gorge · Duration: 4 days · Difficulty: Moderate · Group size: Up to 12

Adding a fourth day to the classic desert tour removes the rush, giving you more time to enjoy each landscape rather than watching it through the window.

You explore the Dades and Todra gorges more fully, spend longer among the dunes of Erg Chebbi — with the option of a 4x4 dune excursion or a visit to nomad families — and travel back at a gentler pace with additional stops.

It is our recommended desert itinerary for those who want depth as well as the highlights.
