About this 4 day small group tour from Marrakech

This 4 day small group tour from Marrakech is the classic way to reach the Sahara in a short stay. You cross the High Atlas by the Tizi n’Tichka pass, stop at the kasbah of Aït Benhaddou, and ride camels at sunset into the dunes of Erg Chebbi for a night in a desert camp near Merzouga.

Travelling in a small group keeps the price friendly and the atmosphere easy: you share the road and the camp with a few other travellers and a local driver-guide. If you prefer to travel only with your own group, the same route runs as a private trip on your dates.
