Marrakech Trip Overview
The private 2 days Marrakech desert tour to Erg Lihoudi in the sahara desert near Zagora is one of our pre-made private 2 days desert tours designed for people limited time to have a complete desert experience. Erg Lihoudi dunes is the best desert destination accessible in only 2 days. We highly do not recommend going to Tinfou dunes or some very small dunes around Zagora. It’s very touristy and provides a very bad travel experience.
