Tours from Marrakech: how to choose the right one
Most tours from Marrakech head south over the High Atlas through the Tizi n’Tichka pass (2,260 m), stop at the UNESCO-listed Ksar of Ait Ben Haddou and Ouarzazate, and then continue to the Sahara. Therefore, the right tour length depends on which desert you want to reach and how many hours you are happy to spend on the road each day.
| Tour length | Where you sleep in the desert | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 2 days | Zagora | Short stays; a first taste of the desert |
| 3 days | Merzouga (Erg Chebbi dunes) | The classic Sahara loop from Marrakech |
| 4–5 days | Merzouga | An easier pace with the Dades and Todra gorges |
| 3–4 days to Fes | Merzouga | One-way trips that finish in Fes |
| 7–10 days | Merzouga | Imperial cities, Chefchaouen and the desert in one trip |

Tours from Marrakech: Frequently Asked Questions
How many days do I need for a desert tour from Marrakech?
To reach the big dunes of Merzouga (Erg Chebbi) you need at least 3 days, because the drive is long. A 2-day tour is possible to Zagora, and 4 or 5 days give you a slower pace with the gorges. See all Morocco desert tours.
Is Merzouga or Zagora better from Marrakech?
Merzouga has the high orange dunes of Erg Chebbi and needs 3 days or more. Zagora is closer, so it suits a 2-day trip, but its dunes are smaller. Our guide Merzouga vs Zagora compares both.
