On the second day of your 10 day tour from Marrakech, you will enjoy a delicious breakfast before leaving the city. In the morning, we head straight toward the majestic High Atlas Mountains to begin our desert adventure.

As we drive through the mountains, we will travel up the famous Tizi n’Tichka pass, which is the highest major road in North Africa, reaching an amazing height of 2,260 meters above sea level. We will take our time making stops along the way at breathtaking panoramic viewpoints. This gives you the perfect chance to take beautiful photos of the stunning landscape and see the traditional Berber clay villages that are built right into the hillsides.

After crossing the mountains, we will descend into the valleys to visit the famous Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, a wonderful clay fortress where famous movies were made. From there, we will continue driving past the green palm groves of Ouarzazate and the beautiful Rose Valley. Finally, we will arrive at the spectacular Dades Gorges in the late afternoon, where you will enjoy a peaceful dinner and stay the night surrounded by massive rock cliffs.

After a delicious breakfast at the hotel, the journey continues deeper into the Sahara. The first stop of the day is the spectacular Todra Gorges. There will be free time to take a peaceful walk along the shallow riverbed, walking between the massive, orange limestone cliffs that rise high into the sky.

After exploring the gorges, the drive goes through many charming Berber towns and lush green valleys. As the road heads farther east, the landscape slowly changes from rocky mountains into the wide, beautiful plains that lead to the gateway of the grand Sahara Desert.

Once in the desert village of Merzouga, the real adventure begins. You will meet your camel caravan to cross the Erg Chebbi dunes and will stop on the high dunes for a magical sunset moment before continuing to the camp.

When you arrive at your luxury camp, you will be welcomed with a warm cup of tea. The staff will give you your private tent to take a shower, and after a tasty dinner, you will sit around the campfire and listen to local Berber music under a sky full of stars.

Today, we highly recommend waking up early in the morning to watch a breathtaking sunrise over the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi, followed by a delicious breakfast at the camp. Afterward, the 4×4 jeep excursion begins as we drive into the deep desert to visit a traditional nomadic Berber family. You will sit inside their handmade tents, share a warm cup of mint tea, and learn about their fascinating, simple way of life in the Sahara.

Next, the adventure takes us to the historic Mifis mine area, an ancient desert mine where locals used to extract minerals and mascara eyeliner. From there, we will visit the village of Khamlia, where you will listen to the beautiful, spiritual Gnawa music played by the local villagers. For lunch, you will stop at a local restaurant in Khamlia to taste the famous Berber pizza, locally known as “Madfouna,” which is a delicious traditional bread stuffed with meat, eggs, and rich Moroccan spices.

Next, if the season is right and there is water, we will drive by the seasonal Merzouga Lake (Lake Sriji) to see the beautiful wild birds and pink flamingos against the desert background. Finally, the jeep takes you back to your Riad next to the dunes, where you can relax, swim in the pool with a beautiful view of the dunes, and enjoy a peaceful second night in the magical desert.

After a wonderful breakfast at your Riad next to the dunes, we will say goodbye to the Sahara Desert.

This journey on our 10 day Morocco itinerary will show you some of the most diverse and changing landscapes in the country.

Our drive takes us through the stunning Ziz Valley, where you will look down at a massive gorge filled with millions of green palm trees and ancient clay villages.

Here, you will have a fun opportunity to see wild Barbary macaque monkeys up close and even feed them some snacks.

Afterward, we will stop for a relaxing lunch and take a walk in Ifrane. This beautiful, clean town is often called the “Switzerland of Morocco” because of its alpine architecture, sloped roofs, and green parks.

Here, you will get to see the famous Bab Mansour, which is one of the most beautiful and grand gateway doors in Morocco. You will enjoy a short tour around this historic city, exploring its magnificent walls and learning about its rich royal history.

Next, our journey takes us to the ancient Roman ruins of Volubilis, a fascinating UNESCO World Heritage site.

After your breakfast, the journey leaves the blue city behind and heads north toward the beautiful coastal city of Tangier. This drive will take you through the scenic green landscapes of the Rif Mountains as you head toward the gateway where Africa meets Europe. This is a spectacular highlight of your 10 days morocco tour from Marrakech.

Our first major stop will be at the legendary Hercules Caves, where the sea meets the rock in a famous opening shaped like the map of Africa.

good to know before you go

  • If this 10 days Morocco tour from Marrakech is a bit too long for your schedule, don’t worry! We offer flexible options to fit your timeframe perfectly.
  • Cash is King: While luxury hotels and big restaurants accept credit cards, local markets (souks), small cafes, and tipping require cash. The currency is the Moroccan Dirham (MAD). You can easily withdraw cash from ATMs at the airport or in major cities.
  • Dress Modestly: Morocco is a welcoming but conservative country. In big cities and at holy sites (such as the Hassan II Mosque), please dress modestly by covering your shoulders and knees.
  • Desert Weather Contrasts: The Sahara Desert can be very hot during the day, but temperatures drop quickly at night. Be sure to pack a warm jacket or fleece for your night at the luxury camp, alongside your sunglasses and a light scarf.
  • Stay Hydrated: Always drink bottled water rather than tap water during your journey. Bottled water is cheap and widely available at every stop.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can this itinerary be customized to fit our specific travel dates?

Absolutely! This tour can be fully customized to match your arrival and departure flight times, specific interests, or special accommodation preferences. Just let us know what you need, and we will tailor the perfect route for you.

The camel ride to the desert camp at sunset usually takes about 1 to 1.5 hours. If you prefer not to ride a camel, we can easily arrange a comfortable 4×4 transfer to take you directly to the camp so you don’t miss any of the fun.

We believe that travel should be as relaxing as the vacation itself. To keep you comfortable, we use only high-quality vehicles like the Toyota Prado, Ford Tourneo, and Mercedes Benz Sprinter. Whether you are traveling alone or in a large group, our spacious and modern fleet ensures you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the view in total style.

We recommend dressing in comfortable, loose layers. For the imperial cities and holy sites like the Hassan II Mosque, it is best to cover your shoulders and knees. For the desert, bring sunglasses, a scarf for the sand, and a warm jacket, as temperatures drop quickly at night.

An amazing trip with the Best Team!
Our family had an amazing time on this Marrakech Morocco tour 10 days. The level of comfort provided was excellent; the private vehicle was always clean and cool, and the traditional Riads we stayed in were breathtakingly beautiful. The absolute highlight for us was riding camels into the Merzouga sand dunes at sunset and spending the night at a luxury desert camp with hot showers and amazing food under the stars. The contrast between the Saharan dunes and the artistic northern coastal towns like Asilah and Tangier was brilliant. Everything was completely seamless and full of hospitality. We love To Marrakech Desert Tours!
