Medina of Fez - The 3-day desert tour from Fes to Marrakech begins by gathering all travelers at a meeting point in the Medina of Fes.

Ifrane National Park - The first stop is Ifrane, often referred to as the Switzerland of Morocco due to its chalet-style houses. A brief walk is planned here. The city was founded by the French administration in 1928 as a retreat from the Sahara desert’s heat.

Azrou Cedar Forest - Following the stop in Ifrane, the journey continues through the Middle Atlas Mountains, with a roadside stop in a Cedar forest, where there might be a chance to see a monkey species native to the Atlas Mountains.

The camel trek takes approximately an hour and 30 minutes. A stop at a high dune offers a serene sunset view over the Erg Chebbi dunes. Alternatively, a 4x4 vehicle can be used to reach the camp (included in the price). Upon arrival, the staff will guide guests to their private tents. After a delightful dinner, guests can relax around a campfire while enjoying traditional Berber music played by the staff. A starry sky can be admired before retiring for the night.
