The shared 2-day desert tour from Fes to Merzouga is the quickest way to sleep in the Sahara dunes if you are short of time. You leave Fes in the morning, reach Merzouga for sunset, spend the night in a camp and return to Fes the next day.

Bear in mind that both days involve many hours on the road. If you can spare one more day, the 3-day tour is more relaxed.

Who is this trip for?

This is a shared tour: you travel with other people in the same vehicle and on the same itinerary. That is why the price is per person, and it is ideal if you are travelling solo, as a couple or with friends. You can compare every departure on our shared desert tours in Morocco page.
