Frequently asked questions
How many days do I need to see the Sahara from Marrakech?
Three days is the realistic minimum because Merzouga is about 560 km away. Four or five days give a more relaxed pace and more time in the dunes.
Which tour is best for a first visit to Morocco?
For a first trip, the 7-day or 10-day circuits combine the imperial cities, Chefchaouen and the Sahara. If you only have a few days, choose a 3- or 4-day desert trip from Marrakech.
Can a tour start in another city?
Yes. Our tours start in Marrakech, Casablanca, Fes, Tangier or Agadir, and any route can be adapted to your arrival and departure cities.
