Overview

The tall dunes of Erg Chebbi sit a long drive from Marrakech, over the High Atlas and deep into the south. This small-group, 3-day trip with accommodation included breaks up the journey with a visit to the UNESCO-listed kasbahs of Ait Ben Haddou and the Dades Valley. Ride camels into the dunes at sunset and sleep under the stars at a desert camp.
