What to expect
You'll be collected from Marrakech and driven south into progressively arid terrain in a private climate-controlled vehicle. The first two nights are spent in handcrafted riads—traditional courtyard houses with authentic Moroccan character. The third night places you beneath stars in a comfortable Berber tent deep in the desert. The highlight is a camel trek timed for golden hour, riding across dunes as light fades. Your guide and driver remain with you throughout, offering genuine insight rather than rehearsed commentary. Days involve travel, exploration and acclimatisation to the landscape.
Good to know
Meals outside breakfast aren't included; arrange lunch locally or request recommendations. Bring sun protection and layers—desert heat drops dramatically at night. Tips for guides and drivers are customary but separate. Travel insurance is not provided. Public transport alternatives exist if you prefer independence getting to/from Marrakech.
