Detailed Itinerary: Your Private Sahara Escape
Day 1: Marrakech – High Atlas – Draa Valley – Zagora
Your Private 2 Days Desert Tour To Zagora From Marrakech begins with a pickup from your hotel or riad. Unlike shared groups, there is no waiting around for other passengers. We head immediately toward the High Atlas Mountains, crossing the Tizi n’Tichka pass (2,260m). The winding roads offer spectacular views of Berber villages nestled in the valleys. Because this is a private tour, we can stop at the best vantage points for as long as you like.
We descend towards Ouarzazate for a relaxed lunch before continuing to Agdez, the gateway to the Draa Valley. This region is a lush ribbon of green in an arid landscape, lined with millions of palm trees and historic Kasbahs that tell stories of the ancient caravan trade. Your drive through the Draa Valley is a highlight of the Private 2 Days Desert Tour To Zagora From Marrakech, offering a peaceful contrast to the city.
Upon reaching Zagora, you will meet your camel caravan. Enjoy a memorable one-hour ride across the dunes as the sun sets, casting long shadows over the sand. You will arrive at your traditional Sahara desert camp just in time for evening festivities. Settle into your private tent, then enjoy a delicious dinner under the stars, accompanied by live music from your nomadic hosts.
Day 2: Zagora Sunrise – Ait Ben Haddou – Marrakech
We recommend rising early to witness the magical desert sunrise. The silence of the dawn is a spiritual experience. After a hearty breakfast at your camp, you hop back on your camel for a scenic ride to meet your private driver. The return leg of your Private 2 Days Desert Tour To Zagora From Marrakech is just as spectacular.
Our main stop for the day is the historic Ait Ben Haddou. Steeped in history and cinematic fame, this village has hosted productions like Gladiator and Game of Thrones.
