3 Days Errachidia Desert Tour Itinerary

1ST DAY: ERRACHIDIA TO MERZOUGA - GATEWAY TO THE SAHARA DESERT

Your 3 days Errachidia desert tour begins with a warm welcome at Errachidia’s Moulay Ali Cherif Airport or your chosen pickup point. As you embark on this 3 days from Errachidia to Merzouga adventure, the road winds through the Ziz Valley, where lush palm groves and ancient kasbahs nestle beneath rugged cliffs. The drive feels like stepping into a painting, with emerald-green oases contrasting the arid landscape.

You’ll pause at a traditional Berber village, sipping mint tea with locals who share stories of their heritage, offering a glimpse into Morocco’s soul. By midday, you arrive in Erfoud, the “Gateway to the Sahara,” where fossil workshops reveal the region’s ancient marine past, showcasing relics crafted into intricate art. After a savory Moroccan lunch of tagine and fresh bread, you reach Merzouga, home to the majestic Erg Chebbi dunes.

Here, you’ll climb aboard a camel for a guided trek into the desert, the golden sands glowing under the setting sun. As twilight falls, you arrive at a luxurious desert camp, where private tents with plush bedding await. Dinner is a feast of Moroccan flavors—think slow-cooked lamb and fragrant couscous—served under a star-filled sky, with Berber drumbeats echoing around a crackling campfire. This first day of your Errachidia tour sets the stage for an unforgettable Sahara adventure.

 

2ND DAY: MERZOUGA TO ERRACHIDIA - SUNRISE AND DESERT EXPLORATION

The second day of your Errachidia to Merzouga tour 3 days begins with a sunrise that transforms the Erg Chebbi dunes into a sea of golden light. You’ll climb a nearby dune, the cool sand beneath your feet and the silence of the Sahara wrapping you in serenity—a moment that defines this Morocco desert adventure. After a hearty breakfast at the camp, a 4×4 adventure takes you deeper into the desert’s heart.

You’ll visit nomadic families, whose warm hospitality and simple way of life offer a profound connection to the land. In the village of Khamlia, the soulful rhythms of Gnaoua music fill the air, inviting you to sway to its African-rooted beats. Lunch is a leisurely affair at a local auberge, where you might try a Berber pizza, a savory flatbread bursting with flavor.

The afternoon is yours to tailor: relax at the camp, try sandboarding down the dunes, or rev up for an optional quad bike adventure across the sands (additional cost). As night falls, you return to the desert camp for another evening of magic. After a delicious dinner, a local guide leads a stargazing session, pointing out constellations in the Sahara’s crystal-clear sky, unmarred by city lights. This day of your Sahara tour from Errachidia immerses you in the desert’s beauty, culture, and boundless wonder.

3RD DAY: MERZOUGA TO ERRACHIDIA - FAREWELL TO THE SAHARA

The final day of your Errachidia to Merzouga 3-day desert tour begins with the option to catch one last desert sunrise, the dunes glowing softly as you savor breakfast at the camp. The journey back to Errachidia takes you to Rissani, a historic trading town where the vibrant souk buzzes with life. Wander through stalls piled high with spices, dates, and handmade crafts, and chuckle at the sight of the town’s famous donkey parking lot—a quirky testament to its traditions.

Your guide shares tales of Rissani’s past as a caravan hub, bringing its history to life. As you travel back through the Ziz Valley, the palm-fringed oasis and dramatic cliffs offer one last chance to soak in Morocco’s stunning landscapes. Stop for photos or quiet reflection, letting the memories of your Erg Chebbi dunes tour settle in.

By late afternoon, you arrive back in Errachidia, where we drop you off at your hotel, airport, or preferred location. As you bid farewell to the Sahara, you’ll carry with you the warmth of Berber hospitality, the thrill of desert adventures, and the magic of a journey that feels like a dream.

My Errachidia to Merzouga 3-day desert tour was nothing short of spectacular! From the moment we were picked up in Errachidia, the journey felt like stepping into a storybook. The Ziz Valley’s lush greenery blew me away, and our guide, Hassan, shared fascinating stories about Berber life that made every stop meaningful. The camel trek into the Erg Chebbi dunes was a bucket-list moment—watching the sunset paint the sands orange was pure magic. The Merzouga desert camp was surprisingly luxurious, with comfy beds and a delicious tagine dinner under the stars. The highlight was day two’s 4×4 adventure, meeting nomads and dancing to Gnaoua music in Khamlia. This Sahara tour from Errachidia was perfectly organized, and I’d recommend it to anyone craving a true Morocco desert adventure.
