5 days trip from Marrakech to Fès via Dades Gorges and the Sahara Desert

This tour is going to show you two unique sides of Morocco. The rich culture of the Berbers and Nomads in the mountains and the stunning Sahara Desert of Merzouga. Especially the hiking trip to the nomads is something less touristic and still small. It's one of our secret favorite places, which we would love to show to the people.

The Sahara Desert, sand as far as you can watch, is something extremely visited that Morocco should see. Sleeping under the stars and the Mikly Way is something you probably never saw in your life before.

So, we do not want to tour you, we do care about every guest separately. In every accomodation you are going to feel like home. You are going to taste the real moroccan cuisine and meet the very friendly berber population.
