4-Days Tour Fes to Marrakech in Detail

Day 1: Fes – Midelt – Erfoud – Merzouga – Erg Chebbi

The first day of your Fes-to-Marrakech 4-day tour will introduce you to the greener side of Morocco as you wander through its cedar forests. This natural beauty will accompany you to Ifrane, Azrou, and Midelt.

Pamper your taste buds with local food in Midelt and get ready to leave for Erfoud and behold the desert. You’ll stay overnight in a hotel overlooking Erg Chebbi.

Day 2: Merzouga – Erg Chebbi Dunes

Go on a tour of the dunes, have tea and lunch with nomads in a Berber village, and head back to the hotel to rest before camel trekking into the desert for an unforgettable sunset adventure. Soak up the beauty of the shifting sands as the sun goes down and the starlit night sky as you arrive at the camp to enjoy dinner and a musical performance near the fire.

You’ll spend the night in a tent for an authentic nomad lifestyle experience and the best view of the desert sunrise. What an inspiring start to the next day of your Fes-to-Marrakech 4-day trip!

Day 3: Merzouga – Todra Gorges – Ouarzazate

After sunrise and having breakfast at a hotel, we will proceed to Erfoud, Ouarzazate, and the Todra Gorges. Each location is a unique historical treasure unearthed during this 4-day tour from Fes to Marrakech in Morocco.

Erfoud is renowned for its marble fossils, while Ouarzazate is nicknamed ‘Ouallywood’ for its numerous locations serving as sets for iconic movies. However, cinematic moments and photo opportunities await not only at Ouarzazate but also at the Todra Gorges. Here, you can make the most of the towering pink cliffs, windswept rock formations, and views of the oases.

Day 4: Ouarzazate – Ait Ben Haddou – Marrakech

Before we go to Marrakech, we’ll take off to Aït Benhaddou, built on the side of a hill and perched gracefully over the Ounila River. This fortification with crumbling mud walls and six kasbahs has its own share of the Ouarzazate movie heritage and is protected by UNESCO.
