Astounded by its nature, colors, architecture, gastronomy… However, you are still hesitating if you should add Desert to the program. Are you looking for crossing a sea of sand on camels? Seeing the sunrise and sunset over the majestic dunes? Spending one or more nights in a desert camp or with a nomad family to gain insight into their daily activities? You didn’t add Morocco desert tours to your bucket list yet? You are on the verge of missing out on a memorable experience. Hence, you will want to hear about the 4 reasons we have gathered before booking your next Morocco desert tour.

Reason # 1: Marrakech, the Desert gate :

Before you take off from Marrakech, you will be able to witness a true medley of sceneries. Driving through the Rich Haouz plains, your eyes will sail toward the horizon. Soon after, you will encounter the High Atlas Mountains majestically standing tall.  Not only planes and mountains, but you will also capture noble valleys resting between ranges of hills or mountains, spectacular sights of the golden-rose tinted sandstones drawing the cliff faces, and shrubs hugging heavenly oases in the middle of deserts. Starting your Morocco desert tours from Marrakech is a must. Being the closest way to the desert, it allows you to enjoy the dramatic contrasts in landscapes.

Reason # 2: Legendary fortresses with poetic history

Made from mud and straw, Kasbahs are typical in North African towns. Kasbahs are fortified villages, with narrow uneven alleyways, cobbles and steps, and concealed stories. Nestled in the foothills of The High Atlas, Ksar Ait ben Haddou is a remarkable illustration of Berber and imperishable architecture in the south. This UNESCO World Heritage Site has to be included in your next Morocco desert tours. More than just a backdrop in Game of Thrones, Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah started its ascent to become the most important location back in the 17th century.  Along the trade route that connected ancient Sudan and Marrakesh via the Draa Valley and the Tizi-n’Telouet Pass, the Kasbah served as one of the several trading locations.

Reason # 3:  For adventurous spirits, wild out in dunes

With the sweeping dunes’ apparent infinity and the smoothness of the orange sand, Erg Chebbi is one of the most stunning sights you will ever see.  The majority of tourists sought this vast dune when trekking to the Sahara in Morocco. When opting for Morocco desert tours, you will be fascinated by how the desert welcomes you with utter silence and how you can simply lose yourself in sands that extend out as far as the eye can reach. However, you will find no better setting to dare refreshing activities: ATV riding, sand boarding, camel trekking, desert glamping and more.

Reason # 4:  Your Arabian night’s tale

Footsteps leaving mystic trails in the sand, soft breeze rolling the smooth sand, rippled sandbanks meeting the light blue sky at the horizon, it sounds like it’s straight out of an oriental movie. Fortunately, it is solely a description of what you will experience during your Morocco desert tours. After the sun merges with golden sand, the night sky unravels its beauty. A sky jet black splashed with hints of the Milky Way, the desert enables an unparalleled acquaintance with crystal-clear stars around a bonfire. The silent desert at night hugs the crisp air, occasionally broken by the sound of camels breathing. You will go back home with an otherworldly tale worthy of Arabian nights.
