Fes – Azrou – Midelt – Merzouga · Erg Chebbi
The route opens in Fes and leads towards Merzouga · Erg Chebbi, connecting some of Morocco’s most characteristic landscapes. Follow the day’s sequence without rushing the stops; each place brings a different perspective on the region. Fes is one of Morocco’s great historic centres, celebrated for its medina, traditional crafts and long-standing educational heritage.
The narrow lanes and artisan quarters are best explored at a measured pace, with guiding arrangements confirmed in advance. Midelt lies between the mountain regions and the desert-bound roads of the southeast. It is a natural place to appreciate changing geology, orchards and the gradual shift in the landscape. At Merzouga, the Erg Chebbi dunes change colour as the light shifts across the sand.
Depending on the confirmed programme, time here may include a guided camel ride, sunset viewpoints, an overnight camp stay or a relaxed look at nearby desert communities. Before booking, ask which sightseeing stops, admissions and meals are covered by the written proposal; the final schedule will reflect your travel dates.
