Afterward, we make our way to Midelt, where you’ll enjoy a traditional Moroccan lunch. Following that, we drive along the stunning Ziz Valley, famous for its lush greenery and winding river. The landscapes here are absolutely breathtaking, offering fantastic photo opportunities. By the afternoon, we reach the Sahara Desert in Merzouga.

The day concludes at a luxury desert camp, where you can enjoy Berber music, dance around a campfire, and spend the night beneath a sky full of stars.
On the second day of your Sahara Desert tour, wake up early to witness the spectacular sunrise over the desert dunes. After enjoying breakfast, we return to Merzouga on camels, where your driver will be waiting. Next, we head to Rissani, a historic town once the capital of Tafilalet.
