During this tour, you will see so many beautiful places in such a short period of time. To reach the Zagora desert, you will pass the High Atlas Mountains, see the Ait Benhaddou Kasbah, and travel via the Draa Valley and Agdez town.

The highlight of this excursion is camel trekking in the dunes. In addition, you will witness the spectacular sunset and dawn in the Sahara and spend the night in a desert tent.

Day 1: Marrakech – Ait Benhaddou Kasbah – Ouarzazate – Agdz – Zagora

We begin the journey early in the morning from your hotel or airport in Marrakech. Afterwards, we travel via the Tizi N-tichka pass (2260 meters above sea level) and the Berber communities. Several pauses will be made along the trip to appreciate the panoramic vistas.

We arrive to Ait Benhaddou Kasbah and have a short tour of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Kasbah has appeared in films such as Gladiator, Lawrence of Arabia, and the TV Series Game of Thrones.

We travel through the Anti-Atlas Mountains, Berber Villages, and the Draa Valley after lunch at either Ait Benhaddou or Ouarzazate. The Draa Valley is Morocco’s largest palm plantation and longest river.

Finally, in the afternoon, we arrive at Zagora for a camel trip in the Zagora desert. Enjoy the stunning sunset before continuing on to your Sahara desert tent, where you will have a Moroccan meal and drum performance beneath the open sky of sparkling stars.

Day 2: Zagora – Marrakech

You return to your tent for a hearty Moroccan breakfast after an early wake-up call from your tour guide to go on a camel ride through the dunes to observe the stunning dawn.

We travel to Ouarzazate, known as “The Gate of the Desert,” where we see the Taourirt Kasbah as well as the Atlas film studios where great films were made. Later, we return to Marrakech through the Tizi N Tichka crossing and the High Atlas highlands.

The Moroccan city of Ouarzazate lies 5 kilometers (3.1 mi) to the west, where Atlas Studios is a film studio. It is the world’s largest film studio in terms of land area. The majority of the land is in the adjacent desert and mountains. As many of the filming locations from numerous movies are still there, the studio offers guided tours and is now a well-liked tourist site.

The Jewel of the Nile, The Living Daylights, Aladdin, The Mummy, Kingdom of Heaven, Asterix & Obelix: Mission Cleopatra, Babel, Atlantis, The Amazing Race 10, The Amazing Race Australia 6, The Grand Tour, Vikings, Prison Break, The Old Guard, and many more have utilised the studio’s services.

Eventually, your two-day Zagora desert trip will conclude with a drop-off at your Marrakech hotel or airport.
