After breakfast, visit the Atlas Film Studios in Ouarzazate and explore the Taourirt Kasbah. Continue toward Skoura, a lush palm oasis home to the well-preserved Kasbah Amridil. Then head to Kalaat M’Gouna, known for its fragrant Rose Valley and annual rose festival. End your day in the scenic Dades Valley, surrounded by dramatic rock formations and winding roads. Dinner and overnight in a local hotel.
Begin the day with a visit to the impressive Todra Gorges, where 300-meter cliffs rise above a narrow river valley. Continue through the palm groves of Tinghir and stop in Erfoud, famous for its fossil workshops. Arrive in Merzouga, gateway to the Sahara, and begin a camel trek into the Erg Chebbi dunes. Watch a spectacular sunset before arriving at your luxury desert camp, where you’ll enjoy a traditional dinner, music, and stargazing.
Wake up to a peaceful desert sunrise and enjoy breakfast before setting out to explore the Merzouga region. Visit nomadic families who live in the desert, then continue to the village of Khamlia, where you’ll experience the spiritual rhythms of Gnaoua music.
