2-Day Zagora Desert Tour From Marrakech
2 Days MARRAKECH TO ZAGORA SAHARA DESERT
Compared to Erg Chebbi and Erg Chegaga, Zagora does not offer a true desert experience but is a good choice for family visits with children or anyone with limited time. The dunes can be reached on a two-day trip from Marrakech and you can break the trip one way to Ouarzazate, Ait Benhaddou or the Berber village of Telouet (over 3 days). Upon arrival in Zagora, your guide will meet you and your camels will take you along the Draa River Valley to your nomad tent in the small dunes where dinner is served under the stars.
