If time and budget are not a problem, the ideal is to make an excursion of 3 or 4 or 5 days to the desert of Merzouga. It is a most beautiful place to discover the most impressive in Morocco. The landscapes that you will see during the days of the excursion are as worthwhile as the desert itself.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If instead you have less days for the excursion, visiting Zagora is the best or in other words the only way to be able to sleep one night in a haima in the desert.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Zagora<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"Zagora is known as a more arid desert. It is located in the valley of the Dra River at the foot of the Atlas Mountains and is the closest desert to Marrakech (about 353 km and about 6 hours). It is therefore the choice of travelers who are going to contemplate a “short” desert adventure, (two days and one night). The highlight of your visit is its large palm grove that runs from the city of Zagora to the entrance to the Sahara.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Highly recommended for those who do not want to miss the experience of sleeping in the desert, take a camel ride and sleep in the camp.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Merzouga, located in the southwest of the country, is the furthest option from Marrakech and the closest to Fez. For these reasons are the dunes that we see in all the advertising claims of the desert of Morocco.During the journey, which takes two days, you can enjoy spectacular places like the kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, where movies and series like Lawrence of Arabia or Game of Thrones were filmed … The Valley of the Roses where a very special rose is cultivated, the Damascene Rose… the spectacular Dades Gorges or the Draa Valley.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Merzouga Desert offers a wide variety of unique and unforgettable adventure activities such as camel riding, quad biking, buggy…<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
