2 day trip from Fes to Merzouga Reviews:

Merzouga desert tour

We are a group of friends who have just returned from Morocco. A fabulous journey. We want to highlight the great option we chose to spend a couple of nights in the desert instead of the 1 night/2-day trip we booked with Touring In Morocco. The luxury camp in the middle of the Erg Cheddi dunes, very well equipped. Even more, excellent rooms, very comfortable beds, side tables, pouf, water, fruit ... very clean and equipped bathroom. Towels, soap, shampoo ... It even had different areas to relax with: hammocks, swing, books, cards, snowboards ... Both delicious and abundant dinner and breakfast. Everything was great. Thank you very much for your welcome and for making us live this great experience!

Family camel ride

We traveled with Aziz, perfect driver, light years away from those who say that in Morocco they don't know how to drive, much better than in Italy. Incredible trip, breathtaking places, not only in the Desert. From the gorges to the Canyons, from the Atlas to the oasis full of palm trees. A wonderful country, with a super guide, who advised us not only on the best restaurants but also on strategic points for photos or activities (like feeding the monkeys). We recommend this kind of trip to everyone with this tour operator.

Ifrane is considered the finest city in Africa and the eighth worldwide. Not only this but the coldest city in Africa with a record of -28 °C in winter.

When arrived at Ifrane during the 2-day trip from Fes, you will be taken to a place called the Garden city. Famous for the white lion statue.

During the second world war, Ifrane was a camp for prisoners. For a German soldier to get his freedom, he had to carve the white lion statue.

In addition, the king Mohammed VI has a palace in the area, he used to come to the city several times for its lovely landscapes.

In Ifrane, there are many Ski clubs for ski lovers. With this in mind, it snows in Ifrane in winter more than any other Moroccan city.

The valley has a running river called also Ziz. Stretches for about 200kms, until it reaches Erfoud.

If you are a photographer, Ziz valley is definitely a great place to get some stunning photos.

Erfoud:

Erfoud is one of the cities you will visit after the Ziz valley during our 2 days Sahara desert tour from Fes.

This city is very famous for the mountains’ fossils extractors, it attracted many archeologists to come to discover its hidden gems.

When arrived at the city before reaching the Merzouga desert, it is optional to go to visit one of the fossils extractors companies.

They say, during the Paleozoic Era, about 380 million years ago, the Moroccan Sahara (Rissani) was a floor of a large prehistoric ocean. In other words, the land outside of Erfoud has very large lands of hidden fossils.

In the company headquarter, you can find fossils like Ammonites, goniatites, and many other types.

Merzouga desert camel trekking and Bedouin camp:

Merzouga is surely the Highlight of the 2 days Sahara desert tour from Fes, it is the tourists’ first visited desert in Morocco.

Erg Chebbi is a large land of sandy desert located in the southeast of Morocco, it has very tall dunes which can reach 150 meters at what people call Lala Merzouga.

All of our Morocco tours can lead you to discover Merzouga’s landscapes and try many activities like Quadbiking, sandboarding at the camp…

When tourists arrive at Merzouga, most of them do the camel ride starting from the village and ending at the camp to spend the night. On the way, they stop for the lovely sunset and gorgeous pictures for the dunes and the camels.

Other tourists choose to stay for a Merzouga’s town trip which is available on the 4 days trip. Firstly, they discover the National Auto Museum of old cars, then the village of Khamlia to meet the Gnaoua people and get to know their music. As a final point, they end trying Berber pizza and get transferred to their hotel to spend the night.
