Day 1: Marrakech – High Atlas Mountains – Tinghir
Your adventure begins with a departure from Marrakech in the morning, heading through the High Atlas Mountains. Drive across the Tizi n’Tichka Pass, offering sweeping views of the rugged terrain, lush valleys, and Berber villages along the way. Stop for photos and brief walks to enjoy the stunning landscape. Arrive in Tinghir in the afternoon. Upon reaching the town, you’ll have time for a short visit to the Todra Gorge, a narrow canyon with towering cliffs that reach up to 300 meters. You can take a walk or hike in the gorge before heading to your hotel or riad. Enjoy dinner at your accommodation, where you can relax after your drive through the mountains.
Day 2: Tinghir – Todra Gorge – Merzouga (Sahara Desert)
After breakfast, you’ll head to Merzouga, the gateway to the Sahara Desert.

In the afternoon, arrive at Merzouga. From here, you’ll ride camels into the Erg Chebbi dunes, where you can enjoy the dramatic sunset as the desert sands change color. After a tranquil evening in the desert, enjoy a traditional dinner under the stars at your luxury desert camp. Relax in your tent for the night, soaking in the quiet beauty of the Sahara.

Wake up early for a mesmerizing Sahara sunrise.
