From crossing the High Atlas Mountains and visiting the UNESCO-listed Ait Ben Haddou to walking through Todra Gorge and riding camels at sunset in the Erg Chebbi dunes, every stop is carefully planned to balance scenic beauty, culture, and adventure without feeling rushed. We operate in comfortable air-conditioned vehicles with experienced English-speaking driver-guides, small group sizes for a more enjoyable journey, and a well-located desert camp experience under the stars with traditional Berber music in the evening. For added flexibility, guests who prefer not to ride camels can transfer to the camp by 4x4 at no extra cost, and optional quad biking is available for extra excitement. This tour is designed to deliver a genuine Sahara experience while ensuring comfort, reliability, and smooth logistics from pickup to drop-off. ## Before you book - Hotel pickup: no car needed - Min. 2 to book: not for solo travellers - Starts 07:30: one departure a day - Food included: Dinner, Breakfast - Strollers OK: infants accepted - Age rule: Specialized infant seats are available **Pickup:** Hotel pickup included ## Key facts - Price: from €110 per person for the Basic Desert Camp Tent option; other options up to €800 - Duration: 72h - Rating: 4.91/5 from 10287 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Operator: Marrakech City Life - Minimum booking: 2 travellers at this price - Group: Shared tour - Guide languages: Arabic, Portuguese, English, Italian, French, Dutch, Spanish - Start times: 07:30 - Booking: Instant confirmation, mobile ticket - Price checked on Viator: 2026-10-21 ## Reviews 4.91 from 10287 ratings on Guidekin, Viator & Tripadvisor. 99% of ratings with a star breakdown are 4 or 5 stars: 10178 of 10287. - 5 stars: 9531 (93%) - 4 stars: 647 (6%) - 3 stars: 71 (1%) - 2 stars: 18 (0%) - 1 star: 20 (0%) ## Tour options Prices are the operator's current list price for two travellers (whole euros); options sold only to bigger parties say so; pick the option on the booking page. | Option | Price | Guide languages | Details | |---|---|---|---| | Basic Desert Camp Tent | €110 / person (for 2+ people) | Dutch, Arabic, Spanish, Italian, French, Portuguese, English, German | Private room and standard camp: First night: Hotel in Tinghir.
