Following your guided city tour, you’ll return to your riad, where you can relax and prepare for the next leg of your journey.

Day 5 Fes – Ifrane – Cedar Forest – Midelt – Merzouga Sahara Desert [467 km]

Today, we leave Fes early and embark on a scenic journey towards the Merzouga Desert, passing through diverse landscapes that transform from lush greenery to golden dunes.

The first stop along our route is Ifrane, often referred to as the “Switzerland of Morocco” due to its alpine-style houses, cool climate, and European-like charm. Here, you’ll witness lush green fields, cedar forests, and even grazing cows—quite a contrast to the arid desert landscapes awaiting you later in the day.

The highlight of the drive is passing through Ifrane National Park, home to one of Morocco’s largest cedar forests. If we’re lucky, we’ll encounter the famous Barbary macaques, known for their playful nature and close ties to the populations in Gibraltar. While feeding them is allowed, it’s advised to do so responsibly.

We continue crossing the Middle Atlas Mountains, stopping for breathtaking viewpoints along the way. The landscape gradually transitions into rocky plains and palm-filled oases as we approach Erfoud, a town renowned for its fossil workshops. Here, we’ll visit a local manufactory where artisans craft decorative pieces and jewelry from ancient fossils found in the region.

From Erfoud, the road leads to Merzouga, where the towering golden sand dunes of the Sahara come into view. Upon arrival, you’ll check in at your hotel or desert camp, located at the edge of the Erg Chebbi dunes.

As the sun begins to set, embark on a magical camel trek across the Sahara, witnessing breathtaking panoramic views as the sky turns shades of orange and gold. Be sure to bring your camera to capture this unforgettable moment before returning to your desert camp for a traditional Moroccan dinner under a starlit sky.

Day 6 Merzouga – Rissani – Todra Gorges – Dades Valley [255 km]

After a leisurely breakfast in the desert, we begin our journey toward Boumalne Dades, traveling through the legendary Road of a Thousand Kasbahs. This historic route, lined with ancient fortresses, traditional Berber villages, and lush oases, once served as a vital trade corridor between the Sahara and Morocco’s imperial cities.

Along the way, you’ll encounter breathtaking landscapes, including half-ruined kasbahs, dramatic rock formations, and wide oasis valleys.

The first major stop of the day is the Todgha Gorge, an awe-inspiring natural wonder located at 1,550 meters above sea level near the Berber town of Tinghir. Known for its towering limestone cliffs, this gorge creates a narrow passageway with walls rising up to 300 meters, with a crystal-clear river running through its base. Here, you’ll have time to explore, take photos, and enjoy the refreshing ambiance of this unique canyon.

Next, we continue towards the Dades Gorge, another striking valley famous for its winding roads, dramatic rock formations, and panoramic viewpoints. After a brief stop to admire the majestic red cliffs and lush valley below, we head to Boumalne Dades, where you’ll check into a comfortable riad or hotel for the night.

Day 7 Dades Valley – Ouarzazate – Marrakech [326 km]

The final day of your 7 Days Morocco Tour from Marrakech takes you on a scenic drive back to Marrakech, passing through historic landmarks, cinematic landscapes, and breathtaking mountain views.

Our journey begins with a drive through the Valley of Roses, a region famous for its fragrant rose fields and artisanal beauty products. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to purchase locally made rose perfumes, soaps, body creams, and even precious essential oils at fair prices.

Continuing our route, we arrive in Ouarzazate, often referred to as the Hollywood of Morocco due to its world-famous film studios and desert landscapes used in major productions.

Next, we visit the legendary Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the best-preserved ksars (fortified villages) in Morocco. This iconic clay-built settlement has been featured in numerous films and TV shows, including Gladiator, Lawrence of Arabia, and Game of Thrones. Stroll through the ancient pathways and admire the centuries-old architecture that tells the story of Morocco’s past.

From here, we ascend into the High Atlas Mountains, reaching the Tizi n’Tichka Pass at 2,260 meters (7,415 feet) above sea level. This mountain route offers spectacular panoramic views, making it the perfect place for a final photo stop before descending into the plains leading to Marrakech.

Upon arrival in Marrakech, we will transfer you to your riad, hotel, or directly to the airport, depending on your departure schedule.

This marks the end of your 7-day Moroccan adventure, filled with unforgettable memories of the country’s imperial cities, desert landscapes, Berber traditions, and breathtaking nature.
