A rest to watch a lovely sunset over the vast and golden sand dunes shift like moving sculptures in the form of draperies.
Watch as the colors vary according to the intensity of the light, and see how they act like the living walls of the desert, the highest reaching a magnificent 150 m.
Spend a magical night under the stars in nomadic tents after a delicious dinner and a music party (Berber drums) with locals. Undoubtedly this will be the best night in your 4 days Marrakech desert tour to Merzouga, if not, in your entire holiday in Morocco.

4 day tour Marrakech-Merzouga- excellent experience
Our 4 days Marrakech desert tour to Merzouga Sahara was absolutely amazing. The Moroccan landscape was like nothing I have seen before, and the night in the Sahara desert was an experience of a lifetime, although it was cold and windy...
It even snowed on the next day! We felt very welcomed the whole time and would highly recommend this Marrakech 4-day trip to anyone.
Best experience of life
My boyfriend and I planned a trip with the MTA organization and didn’t know what to expect. Before you go, you don’t know a lot about the desert trip.
What makes it a little bit outside, but maybe even more interesting. The trip was absolutely an amazing experience from the beginning.
We did a 4 day trip with 3 nights, one in the Dades valley and one in the desert the last one in Ouarzazate.
Everything was well-organized and we saw many beautiful places along the way. Thank you so much for the unforgettable experience.
