2-Day Safari in the Zagora Desert

Discover the Zagora Desert in All Its Authenticity

Details of 2-Day Safari in the Zagora Desert

Embark on an unforgettable 2-day Zagora desert tour from Marrakech, ideal for travelers who want to experience the beauty of the Sahara in a short time. From crossing the spectacular High Atlas Mountains to exploring the legendary Ait Ben Haddou kasbah, riding camels into the dunes, and spending the night in a traditional Sahara camp under the stars, this journey captures the magic of Morocco.


Day 1: Marrakech – Ait Ben Haddou – Zagora

Your adventure begins with an early morning pick-up from your hotel or riad in Marrakech. Travel across the stunning High Atlas Mountains with their winding roads and panoramic landscapes, before reaching the famous village of Ait Ben Haddou, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Recognized from countless films and TV series, it’s a must-see on any Morocco desert tour. Enjoy a guided visit and free time for lunch before continuing your journey.

In the afternoon, follow the palm-filled Drâa Valley, dotted with fortified kasbahs and lush oases. Upon arrival in Zagora, meet your camel caravan for a sunset camel trek across the desert dunes – one of the highlights of your 2-day Sahara safari.

As night falls, settle into your Sahara desert camp. Your private tent offers comfort in the middle of the dunes, where dinner is served under the stars. Share stories with nomad hosts, enjoy traditional Berber music around the campfire, and immerse yourself in the spirit of the desert.


Day 2: Zagora – Marrakech

Wake early to admire the magical desert sunrise over the Zagora dunes (optional, but unforgettable). After a traditional breakfast, ride your camel back to the main road where your driver awaits. Relax on your return journey through valleys and mountains, reaching Marrakech around 6:00 p.m.
