Ouarzazate sits on the doorstep of the Sahara, making it the shortest possible base for reaching the Merzouga dunes — our 3-day route gets you there and back with minimal driving. It's also the standard link between the desert and Marrakech, so a 4-day departure from Ouarzazate covers both in one private trip.
Known as the gateway to the movie-studio kasbahs of Ait Ben Haddou and the Draa Valley, Ouarzazate suits travellers who are already in the south of Morocco and want to add the desert without a long transfer from Marrakech or Fez.
