2 Days Merzouga Desert Tour from Fez

Day 1: Fez > Ifrane > Azrou > Medio Atlas > Midelt > Erfoud > Merzouga

After breakfast, we head south to cross the Middle Atlas Mountains until we reach Ifrane, known as Moroccan Switzerland due to its great resemblance to that country. One of the animals that formerly lived here was the Atlas lion, which is why it has become the symbol of the city and to which a stone statue has been dedicated in the center of it. We will take the opportunity to stop and take some photos. We will cross the famous cedar forests and we will be able to admire the Great Gouraud Cedar, the largest ancient cedar in the region and also feed the hundreds of Gibraltar monkeys that live in the area. Lunch in Midelt and from here the land becomes arid and full of spectacular geological formations and deep green valleys, such as the Ziz Valley. We will begin to see the typical adobe architecture, palm trees, some distant Kasbahs… we are at the gates of the desert. After an hour we arrive at the impressive Dunes of Merzouga and after the hospitality tea, we will leave our suitcases and get ready with the necessary things to leave for the desert in the best 4×4: the dromedaries who will take us to the camp in the heart of the Sahara, but before arriving we will stop to enjoy the impressive sunset from the dunes and take photographs.
