What you'll see and do
Merzouga Desert
We will pick you up from your Fes hotel in the morning and head to the south of Morocco. Ifrane, which is sometimes called "Switzerland of Morocco," will be our first stop. There, we'll take some great pictures of the city's stunning beauty. After that, we'll drive to Azrou to see Barbary apes in the cedar forest. Then, we'll go to Midelt for lunch at a neighborhood restaurant. In the afternoon, our 2-day Desert Tour from Fes to Merzouga goes to Errachidia along the TIZI N TALGHAMT road, stopping at Ziz Valley to take in the views of the Ziz Gorges. Then we'll go through Aoufous and Erfoud, where we'll stop at a local workshop that makes crafts from fossils. After that, we'll keep going to the beautiful dunes of Erg Chebbi. We ride camels for an hour and a half to enjoy the beautiful scenery at sunset. When we get to our desert camp, we eat a wonderful meal and spend the night in native tents under the stars.

Magic in Morocco!
How can I even begin to describe the most perfect three days to celebrate a very big birthday in our group! It was a dream to be in Morocco Africa for this celebration and the best part of the whole trip was this company! From the moment of our first question until the end of our 1000 questions, they were patient, communicative and attentive and no detail was missed. This was a private tour from Casablanca-Rabbat-Fes-Merzouga-Marrakech and we could have never anticipated the amazing things we saw, learned and experienced! Youssef, Idir, Reda and our other hosts were so warm and hospitable, really kind humans. When you spend 3 days together, you want to spend it with a guide who is pleasant and Idir thought of everything along the route. Even the stops were perfectly timed with meeting breaks without asking. He made additional arrangements for a Hammam and other things to assist us even when it was not part of the tour. Each time we passed the big buses, we commented that it was so amazing to have our own private tour. The camel ride and sunset ATV was literally breathtaking. The music show in the evening gave us a taste of another culture’s entertainment. The scenery during the drive was magnificent. Fes taught us about a whole new world and around every corner of the Medina we learned about the history and artisan work of the leather, pottery, copper and more! There is no way to top this tour!

Great tour
I picked this tour out of many due to Youssef’s prompt communication. Our driver Mohamed was great, always on time, available, and accommodating. The desert was a highlight of our trip, we rode camels and they even made a surprise birthday celebration for my mom. Everything went smoothly.

I had the privilege of doing a private tour with Rachid from Touring in Morocco. From entering Morocco, Rachid welcomed us with open arms. He showed us the top spots in Morocco, provided us with tons of history, and recommended AMAZING food places. So amazing that’s I’ve had beef with prunes four times on our trip. Rachid, is now a life long friend. He made our first trip to Morocco and unforgettable one. Thank you so much for all you do brother. I can’t wait to come back.

Girls trip in Morocco
We had an absolutely wonderful 10 day trip with them. Our guide Hamid made every moment special with his passion, kindness, and deep knowledge of Moroccan culture. A big thank you as well to our driver Hassan, always smiling, caring, and truly professional. Thanks to both of them, we discovered Morocco in the most authentic and memorable way. We wholeheartedly recommend Touring in Morocco!

Why this scores 81
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Best Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour 2 Days: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Fez.
How much does Best Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour 2 Days cost?
+
Prices start at $145 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 Best Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour 2 Days take?
+
Plan for about 48 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 Best Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour 2 Days worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 38 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 Best Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour 2 Days?
+
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 Best Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour 2 Days suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 5. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 48-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Best Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour 2 Days?
+
Around 13 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 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Best Fes to Merzouga Desert Tour 2 Days 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 Day Trip to Chefchaouen from Fez ( instagram /Photos ), Fes to Marrakech: Merzouga & Ait Ben Haddou, 3 Days 2 Nights, 2 Days Desert Tour from Fes to Fes/Marrakech via Erg Chebbi. 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.
