An unforgettable adventure in southern Morocco
It's our most requested tour, and for good reason: in three days you go from the High Atlas mountains to mud-brick kasbahs, from the Dadès and Todra canyons to the great orange dunes of Erg Chebbi.
On the second evening you ride a camel to the camp as the sun sets behind the dunes. The drive back to Marrakech is long, but the road is like a film that never stops.
- Aït Ben Haddouand its kasbahs
- Todra Gorgeand spectacular scenery
- Sunset camel rideacross the Erg Chebbi dunes
- Night in the desertin a Berber camp
