Your 2 days Marrakech desert tour to Zagora will allow you discover Morocco Sahara desert at a glance. If you visit Marrakech and you’re short of time, but you can not miss the desert with a camel trek in the sand dunes of Zagora, and an night under the stars in your Sahara desert camp, then this is probably the best Morocco desert tour for you: Please beware that 7 hours driving time each way is involved, but the scenery is great and you’ll never get bored.

Unforgettable experience
My friend and I had a fabulous experience on our three day, two night tour from Fez to Marrakech. The highlight was the night spent in the Sahara desert which included a bumpy (but fun) camel ride…hold on when they stand up and sit down! We also enjoyed a midnight stroll among the dunes before laying as a group on the sand in companionable silence, watching for shooting stars. There’s a lot of driving on this tour but it was made easy by our fabulous driver, Brahim. He was welcoming, knowledgeable, friendly and conversational. The kms covered give you a chance to absorb the varied and often beautiful landscape of Morocco. I would recommend flthis tour for anyone looking for an adventure outside of the everyday kind. Unforgettable!
Just fantastic all round
After many hours pouring over reviews we finally decided to book a 4 day/3 night tour with Morocco Desert Tours and I have to say it was one of the best trips I have done. Our tour guide Abdul was cheerful, professional and had excellent English. As it was a private tour we had complete flexibility over the itinerary if we wanted to charge anything but the itinerary provided was perfect for us. No more than 5 hours of driving a day in the very comfortable and fairly new SUV (great AC when needed) and truly amazing views along the way. The food stops were all delicious and fairly priced. We really wouldn’t change a thing on the trip. Along the way we came across other travelers who had gone with various other companies who were less happy with their food, car, etc which made us even more relieved and happy with our choice to go with these guys. Highly recommended and we look forward to our next trip with them! Thank you for such amazing memories!
Amazing experience!
We did the 3 day tour from Marrakech to Fes through Merzouga. The tour was very comfortable and Yosep did a really good explaining to us all the sights and sounds and the Moroccan culture. He also brought us to many places and was diligent in helping us take photos.
We lost our luggage in Marrakech while flying Royal Air Maroc, and Yosep also helped us call various people to figure out what he can do. Given that we do not speak Arabic or French, his help was very much appreciated.
We would definitely recommend this tour to our family and friends.
Merzouga desert tour from Marrakech
My best friend and I did the 3 day/2 night your from Marrakech to Merzouga and back. It was incredible! The landscapes were stunning, the people were friendly and welcoming, and the opportunity to see the golden sand dunes of the Sahara was indescribable. Our driver, Ahmed, was incredibly helpful and friendly and even gave us spices which his mother had ground herself. Overall, this was nothing short of amazing and I highly recommend it to anyone traveling to Morocco!
