Marrakech Trip Overview
The 2 days Marrakech desert tour begins nice and early (so as to get as much in on your first day) with a pick up from your hotel. We request you actually be ready by 7.30 a.m. as by this hour we shall be heading out and getting under way on an adventure of a lifetime. This tour is available as a shared experience within a minibus or a minivan. The Marrakech to Zagora desert trip will also include an opportunity to ride on the caravan of the desert. But we do appreciate camel riding is not everyone’s idea of comfort, so walking alongside the guide or taking transport to the desert camp is an option, should you prefer. This trip is perfect for those who are short on time and wish to seize the opportunity to become introduced to the Moroccan Sahara desert in a just two days.
