Your camel guide will wake you up early in the morning to watch what will may be the
best sunrise of your life. You’ll peacefully camel-trek back to the village of Merzouga.
Enroute you couldn’t fail to appreciate the unique beauty of the spectacular Erg Chebbi
sand dunes – changing with the light as the day progresses. After breakfast and hot
shower in the riad, you’ll leave for Rissani , Tinghir, and Todgha gorges – the highest,
narrowest gorges in Morocco. After lunch in the heart of the gorge we’ll drive through the
Dades Valley, where you’ll see the majestic sand castles and the amazing rock
formations known as « monkey toes ». Overnight accommodation will be in a fancy guest
house overlooking the Dades Valley with diner and breakfast.

After breakfast in your accommodation, you will start travelling through the Dades Valley
towards Ouarzazate and then to Marrakech. The road through Dades Valley is called the
way of the thousand Kasbahs – providing numerous opportunities to take some of your
best photographic shots of the trip. You will stop at Kalaat M’Gouna -the centre of rose’s
valley-, where you will have the option to visit the cooperative for the roses, to purchase
the rosewater, which will make your linen smell good a long time after your trip is over.
Continue to Marrakech via the Ait Benhaddou Kasbah. Built by Et Hami El Glaoui, one of
the last Berber chieftains during the 19th century, now the Kasbah is a house of many
Glaoui people. Your journey will continue through the majestic Tizi n’Tichka Pass (2260
m) over the High Atlas Mountains, where you will have the opportunity to explore the
process of producing the Argan oil- existing only in morocco – by Berber women in their
cooperative, before arriving at your overnight accommodation in Marrakech.
