Overview
Tizi n’Tichka, Ait Ben Haddou, Dades and Todra gorges, sunset camel ride and a night in an Erg Chebbi desert camp.
Morocco’s great classic: three days to cross the High Atlas and reach the golden dunes of the Sahara. Every stage brings different landscapes: mountain passes, earthen kasbahs, palm groves, canyons and finally the vastness of Erg Chebbi.
On the second evening, a camel caravan takes you to the camp in the heart of the dunes for a Berber dinner, music around the fire and a night under one of the starriest skies in the world.
