Best 2 Days Get Your Desert Tours from Fes
Day 1: Fez – Ifrane – Monkey Forest – Erfoud – Merzouga Desert
This Best 2 Days Get Your Desert Tours from Fes may begin from the airport upon arrival if that is more convenient for the group, or it can start from the hotel if that is where you are already staying, or it can start from any other location… And then we’ll begin our road trip in a southerly direction.
The town of Ifrane is the first major stop on this day… Since they are in risk of going extinct, this is really one of the few natural environments where they exist.
Subsequently, we will traverse the Middle Atlas’ natural barrier and descend into the Ziz Valley, so named for the long, lowly river that runs through it. As we follow its path, we’ll notice how the Moroccan desert sweeps over us and ends in Erfoud.
This little town is well-known for a variety of things, chief among them the fossils it has—some of which are of enormous dinosaurs—and for producing marble. It has also provided a desert-themed filming setting for movies like The Mummy…
This will bring us into the Erg Chebbi dunes, where massive mounds of golden sand will block our view… In one of these traditional tents you will rest, but not before enjoying the breathtaking image of the starry sky above our heads, clean and shining unhindered by clouds and artificial lighting.
Day 2: Merzouga Desert – Fez
It will be worthwhile to rise early on this second day of our desert tour from Fez, as we will be prepared to see the sunrise in the dunes of Erg Chebbi, a special location to take in the first rays of daylight. Following breakfast, we will go back to Merzouga via camel ride (or 4×4 depending on the option selected)…
