Overnight Sahara Desert Tour from Marrakech with Camel Ride and Desert Camp

You will be picked at your hotel or riad between 7 and 7:30. Drive toward Ouarzazate, enjoying views of Berber villages and towns dotted along the way contributing to the contrast of colors. Cross the Atlas in the port of Tichka (7414ft / 2260m), where you can admire the different valleys in the area. Cross towards the south side of the Atlas and note the unmistakable difference in vegetation with eyes fixed on the semi-arid plains before reaching the silent city of Ouarzazate, famous for the films studios. You will also be able to visit the Kasbah Taourirt.

Afterward, you'll go through the port of Ait Saoun with its stunning views (gorges, canyons ...). The Draa Valley and the river that gives its name form an ecosystem that alternates the aridity of the surrounding mountains and Saghro Siroua with the green of the palm groves.

Once in Zagora you'll not waste any time and get on your dromedary for an approximately 2-hour ride into the desert. The Haimas at the bereber campsite lead us to spend the night in the dunes under a starry sky.

After enjoying a night in the desert, go back to Marrakech. En-route, stop to visit (by your own) one of the country's most famous Kasbahs, the set of Kasbahs of Ait Ben Haddou, which have served as a backdrop to several movies (for example Lawrence of Arabia and Gladiator). Arrival in Marrakech (aprox. 19:00 hrs) and end of service.
