Tours from Errachidia
Fly into the closest airport to the Sahara and be in the dunes of Merzouga before sunset, on a private tour planned around you.
Start in Errachidia
The Short Road to the Dunes.
Errachidia is the gateway to the Tafilalet. Just south of the town, the Ziz Valley opens into a long river of date palms, and in about two and a half hours you reach the orange dunes of Erg Chebbi.
From Merzouga, our tours continue north through the Ziz Gorges and the cedar forests to Fes, or west through the Todra and Dades gorges and Aït Ben Haddou to Marrakech. Or simply stay and live the desert for three slow days.
