DAY 2 – Skoura – Roses Valley – Boumalne Dades – Todra Gorges – Erfoud – Rissani – Merzouga

Distance: 323 km – Travel time: 4h30

After a homemade breakfast, we depart at 9:00 am. The Skoura palm grove (25 km²) is a lush oasis with small clay villages, surrounded by palm and fruit trees. Along the way, we pass by ancient kasbahs blending into the landscape.

We continue to the Roses Valley, a breathtaking narrow valley with steep, ochre-colored cliffs. It is one of Morocco’s most scenic and famous sites.

Lunch stop at Anissa Auberge, just before entering the Todra Gorges.

By late afternoon, we arrive in Merzouga, known as the "desert door". Here, we leave our car and ride camels through the mesmerizing red dunes of Erg Chebbi. Enjoy the tranquility of the desert before reaching the camp at sunset. Dinner and overnight stay at the desert camp.

DAY 3 – Erg Chebbi – Drâa Valley – Agdz – Aït Benhaddou – Marrakech

Distance: 562 km – Travel time: 8h30

We start early at 8:00 am, taking the southern route through Alnif. The landscape, surrounded by the Anti-Atlas Mountains, resembles the wild African savannah. Passing through N’Kob, the "Village of 45 Kasbahs", we connect the Drâa Valley with the Ziz Valley.

In Agdz, 69 km south of Ouarzazate, we enter the historic Drâa Valley, once part of the ancient caravan route between Marrakech and Timbuktu. Lunch stop on the way before we continue through the Anti-Atlas mountains. This rugged range, dating back 300 million years, offers a surreal landscape.

Reaching the Tizi n'Ait Saoun Pass (1,900 m), the scenery becomes stark and dramatic, with little vegetation. We return to Marrakech through the Tizi n'Tichka Pass, with about 4 hours of driving left.
