Our most popular journey. Travel privately from Marrakech across the High Atlas Mountains to the spectacular Erg Chebbi dunes near Merzouga. Ride camels into the desert, spend a magical night in a comfortable camp, and watch the sun rise over a sea of golden sand.

Along the way you will discover the UNESCO kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, the Dades Valley and the rose town of Kelaa M’Gouna — all at your own relaxed pace.
