Continuing our 4 Days Casablanca Desert Tour, start your day early to witness the breathtaking sunrise over the majestic Erg Chebbi dunes. After breakfast and shower at your desert camp, you’ll ride the camels or transfer by 4×4 vehicle to the original starter location in Merzouga town and meet your driver.

Then continue your Casablanca to Marrakech desert tour. If it’s a market day (Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday) we’ll make a stop in the town of Rissani to check out their lively Moroccan souk (outdoor market). Next is a drive to Tinghir, making a brief stop along the way to take in panoramic views of palm groves and traditional Berber villages dotting the valleys below.

We’ll then reach Todra Gorge, a 300-meter canyon carved through the limestone rock by the Todra and Dades rivers. Take a walk along the canyon floor down a narrow path with the towering cliffs above you. You’ll break for lunch here.

After lunch, continue to Dades Gorge and Valley, known as “The Road of 1000 Kasbahs” for the numerous fortified villages perched along the route. We will walk through Monkey Toes, a section where the canyon narrows between jagged rock columns that resemble primate feet. 

Other sights we will see include the Cinemas, vertical erosion ridges resembling rows of theater seating, and Damien’s Gorge sculptures. This entire region was underwater 100 million years ago, with the rock layers formed from marine sediments over millennia. We will end our day in Dades Gorge,  and check into your accommodation for the night.
