Stop in Ifrane, known as "Little Switzerland" for its alpine-style architecture and tidy gardens, then continue to the Azrou Cedar Forest where you may spot wild Barbary macaques among the giant cedar trees. Continue through Midelt and into the dramatic Ziz Valley, with its winding gorges and endless palm groves. Arrive in Merzouga in the late afternoon, where camels will be waiting to take you across the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi for a magical sunset.

Wake up early to watch the sunrise paint the dunes in shades of gold and pink. After breakfast, ride camels back to the village and begin your return journey to Fes, retracing the scenic route through the Ziz Valley, Midelt, Azrou, and Ifrane. Arrive back in Fes in the evening, marking the end of your unforgettable desert escape.
