Chegaga 2 Days Desert Tour from Marrakech
Experience the real sand dunes and discover the Berber lifestyle on this 2-day Sahara desert tour to the Erg Chegaga dunes. Sleep in a traditional desert camp, enjoy sunrise and sunset during a camel ride, and travel through the famous Draa Valley surrounded by palm groves, historic kasbahs, and beautiful desert landscapes.
Airport-to-Airport Trip
Your holiday should feel easy from the moment you land until the moment you fly back.
No matter how many people are in your group, we offer comfortable, air-conditioned vehicles to ensure a smooth and pleasant transfer.
A 2-day tour to the Erg Chegaga dunes is highly recommended, but adding a stay in a traditional riad and a day of sightseeing before or after your desert tour will make your trip even better.
For Morocco desert tours, hotel bookings, car rentals, airport pickups, or sightseeing tours, you can contact us directly to discuss your needs.
Day 1: Marrakech → High Atlas Mountains → Taznakht → Foum Zguid → Erg Chegaga Dunes
Your tour begins at 6:00 AM with pickup from your riad.
You will drive through the High Atlas Mountains, passing beautiful landscapes and Berber villages along the way.
Your first main stop is Taznakht, a Berber village famous for handmade carpets. Here you can visit a women’s cooperative to see how traditional rugs are made.
Afterward, continue to Foum Zguid, where you will stop for lunch.
From there, the adventure continues off-road across the Iriqui dry lake until you reach the Erg Chegaga dunes.
Upon arrival, you will be greeted with a glass of mint tea before taking a camel ride to watch the sunset.
Dinner and overnight will be in a nomad-style tent or outside under the stars in the middle of the dunes.
Day 2: Erg Chegaga → Mhamid → Zagora → Ait Ben Haddou → Marrakech
After enjoying sunrise over the dunes and having breakfast at the camp, your journey back to Marrakech begins.
You will drive off-road to Mhamid and then follow the beautiful Draa Valley.
Your next stop is Ait Ben Haddou, Morocco’s most famous kasbah and a UNESCO World Heritage site. You will visit the kasbah and have lunch in a local restaurant.
In the afternoon, continue the drive through the High Atlas Mountains before reaching Marrakech around the early evening.

1. What’s the difference between a private and a shared tour?
The main difference is the vehicle. In a shared tour, you only share the transportation. Your room and tent stay private, and you can also eat separately if you prefer.
Another difference is that private tours are always guaranteed — once you book, the tour is confirmed.
Shared tours depend on demand and need at least 4 people. If the minimum is not reached, you can choose a free cancellation or continue as a private tour with a special price.
2. Is vegetarian or vegan food available?
Yes, we can prepare vegetarian or vegan meals. Just tell us during the booking, and remind your driver during the tour.
3. Can I reach the camp without riding a camel?
Yes, you can. The camp has a 4×4 car that transports luggage and guests who don’t want to ride camels, or who prefer to ride only once.
If you booked a private tour, your 4×4 vehicle can take you directly to the camp if needed.
4. Does the camp have private bathrooms?
Yes. Our camp is a luxury camp, and all tents have private bathrooms and showers. We include this in our basic packages without a big extra cost.
5. Can I bring my luggage on the tour?
Yes, you can bring your luggage. Our vehicles have plenty of space for large suitcases. Your luggage stays with you at all times, and in the desert, a 4×4 car will take it safely to your tent at the camp.
How to Pay for the Tour:
To confirm your tour or activity, we require a small deposit paid through PayPal to our group coordinator. The remaining balance is paid in cash at pick-up, directly to your driver, in euros or the equivalent amount in dirhams.
Credit Cards:
We do not accept credit card payments. Credit cards are not very practical in Morocco, and they come with high fees and some security risks.
Paying the Total Amount with PayPal:
We usually request the balance in cash because PayPal has high transaction fees and delays for international transfers. In some cases, we can accept full payment by PayPal, but a 5% fee will be added to cover extra charges. If you prefer this option, please arrange it with us before the tour date.
