SG Morocco Tours
Day 1 : Fes - Middle Atlas Mountains - Sahara Desert Fes Desert Trips's driver, will pick you up from you hotel or Riad at 7 am for the fabulous journey up into the Middle Atlas Mountains. The first stop will be the delightful town of Ifrane, built by the French in the 1930's and known as Morocco's Switzerland because of it's Alpine chalet-styled architecture and aspect. In the winter it is snow covered and there is a ski resort, Michliffen, nearby. Next you will travel through the huge cedar forests around the Berber village of Azrou, The Rock in the local Berber dialect where the famous Barbary apes, actually macaque monkeys will attempt to share your lunch in their natural habitat. Then, passing through the Atlas Mountains, that are said to hold up the sky, winding your way through forested peaks, twisting mountain streams and springs and spectacular, rough rock walls, you will arrive at the important Sahara's edge town of Rissani, then continuing on south, you will be surprised by the sudden appearance, as if by magic, of the Erg Chebbi sand dunes. At the foot of the sand dunes your Kasbah/ hotel awaits you, hot sweet tea is served and then you can chill out after the long journey and enjoy a delicious dinner while listening to the sweet strains of traditional Berber music until it is time to sleep. Day 2 : Share in the Beauty of the Erg Chebbi Dunes and the Hypnotic Sahara After breakfast you can choose your own experience; the delights of a walk through the immense dunes of the Erg Chebbi perhaps a refreshing dip in the hotel swimming pool, or maybe you'd prefer the option of a shopping trip to the nearby villages of Merzouga, with the largest underground natural reservoir in Morocco, and then the tiny Khamlia, called the village of the black people, as it is inhabited by the descendants of slaves taken from The Sudan who will enthrall you with their performances of their much loved Gnawa music. At dusk, you will find your camel prepared to carry you off into the glorious sunset on an unforgettable ninety minute trek through the shifting desert sands before you arrive at a traditional Berber desert encampment to spend the night in a tent, surrounded by mountainous dunes. Your guide will cook you an authentic Moroccan repast while you just take it easy, watching the stars, so many and so bright, you feel you could reach out and touch them, and listening to the soft sounds of time-honoured Berber music. A truly memorable day. Day 3 : Gorgeous Gorges and the Mountains to Marvelous Marrakech

friendly driver
Very nice, we had a really friendly driver to the desert. There was a pool there where we could relax before we went on a camel ride in traditional clothing. The campfire was really nice and the people were really friendly 🙂
Response from the operator: we are so happy that you enjoyed our experience

different class
Our guide and driver Abdul and Suleiman Bairha took the tour into a different class. They were always polite and sensitive to everyone's needs. They fulfilled every need with a smile. They ensured good compromises were agreed when customers needs differed and ensured long coach trips were occupied with information, entertainment and laughter.
Response from the operator: Tnx a lot

great journey
Said doesn’t just guide (or “gyde”?) you through a mezcal tasting … he takes you on a journey through history and culture, biology and chemistry, ancient traditions and modern innovations

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
3 days 2 nights desert trip Fes to Marrakech: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Fez.
How much does 3 days 2 nights desert trip Fes to Marrakech cost?
+
Prices start at $251 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Fez usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 3 days 2 nights desert trip Fes to Marrakech take?
+
Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Fez is not rushed.
Is 3 days 2 nights desert trip Fes to Marrakech worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Fez, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 3 days 2 nights desert trip Fes to Marrakech?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 3 days 2 nights desert trip Fes to Marrakech suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 3 days 2 nights desert trip Fes to Marrakech?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Fez can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Fez and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 3 days 2 nights desert trip Fes to Marrakech start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Fez within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Fez?
+
On Outty we rank every Fez experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Fes to Marrakech desert tour 3 days, Fes to Marrakech: Merzouga & Ait Ben Haddou, 3 Days 2 Nights, 2Days groupe Tour Fes To Fes Or Marrakech Via Sahara Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Fez?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Fez?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
