Your 2 Days Desert Tour From Ouarzazate begins with a scenic drive from Ouarzazate into the lush Skoura Oasis, where palm groves hide dozens of ancient kasbahs. Among them stands the beautifully restored Kasbah Amridil, one of the most iconic fortresses in southern Morocco. A short visit allows you to understand traditional adobe construction and the lifestyle of families who once lived in these fortified homes.

Continuing deeper into the mountains, the road leads into the Valley of Roses, famous for its annual rose harvest and the artisanal cosmetic products handmade in local cooperatives. It’s a wonderful place to pause and explore fragrant rose water, creams, and natural oils.

Your journey then carries you into the dramatic scenery of Dades Gorges, where layers of ancient seabed sediments reveal millions of years of geological history. After a relaxing lunch, you will learn how sandstone, limestone, and coral reef sediment formed these towering cliffs through slow tectonic uplift.

As the landscapes open up, the road continues through the wide Ziz Valley, celebrated for its vast palm groves and the annual Date Festival. Farther north, the town of Erfoud introduces you to Morocco’s fossil heritage, this region holds prehistoric treasures over 300 million years old.

By mid-afternoon, you arrive in Rissani, a historic trading center once connected to Timbuktu by gold and salt caravans. It’s the last major town before the desert, marking your approach to the majestic dunes of Merzouga (Erg Chebbi).

Before sunset, mount your camel and glide across the golden dunes, climbing to a high ridge where the sun paints the desert in fiery colors. Afterward, arrive at your luxury desert camp, complete with private bathrooms, handcrafted décor, and a peaceful ambiance under the starlit sky. Tonight, enjoy a traditional dinner beside a warm campfire, accompanied by Berber drumming and the silence of the Sahara.

Rise early to witness one of the desert’s most magical moments: sunrise over the dunes, where the shifting light creates mesmerizing patterns in the sand. After breakfast, your return journey begins through ever-changing landscapes, completing the unforgettable 2 Days Desert Tour From Ouarzazate.

Your route leads toward the village of Tazzarine, known for its oasis charm and even mentioned in the film Babel. A bit farther, the peaceful town of N’Qob welcomes you for a relaxed lunch surrounded by views of its palm groves and earth-toned kasbahs.

Continuing to Tansikht, the road crosses the Dra’a River and follows the historic caravan route once traveled by merchants heading to Timbuktu. This is a region rich with history, oasis life, and impressive geology. A short off-road detour gives you a closer look at local village life and a special stop reveals actual dinosaur footprints fossilized in the rock.

Reaching Agdez, at the head of the Dra’a Valley, you’ll have the chance to visit Kasbah Tamnougalte, one of the oldest and most storied kasbahs in southern Morocco. Some families still live inside this ancient structure, preserving centuries of heritage.

The final stretch climbs the twisting road of Tizi-n-Tinfifte Pass, offering striking views of unusual rock formations and deep valleys before descending toward Ouarzazate. Your 2 Days Desert Tour From Ouarzazate concludes around early evening.
