  1. Day 1: Fes – Ifrane – Cedar Forest – Midelt – Ziz Valley – Merzouga

    Departure from Fes towards the desert. First stop in Ifrane, the "Switzerland of Morocco", and in the Azrou cedar forest to see the macaques in their natural habitat. Lunch in Midelt, then through the Ziz Valley and its striking landscapes to Merzouga. Camel ride into the dunes to watch the sunset over the Sahara. Dinner, Berber music and a night at a luxury camp under the stars.

  2. Day 2: Merzouga – Rissani – Erfoud – Ziz Valley – Ifrane – Fes

    Sunrise over the desert and return to Merzouga by camel. Visit to Rissani and its traditional market, then Erfoud and its famous fossilised marble. Drive back to Fes with stops in the Ziz Valley, the cedar forest and Ifrane. Arrival in the afternoon and transfer to your accommodation or the airport. End of the tour.
