FAQs
Is this a private tour?
We certainly believe that the best way to dive deep in the Moroccan culture is through private tours. You can stop whenever & wherever you like while learning at your own pace. Shared tours tend to cramp travelers & you are controlled to follow a certain planned itinerary.
Does the tour to Zagora includes lots of driving?
Zagora Desert remains the closest desert experience one can opt for from Marrakech if you are short of time. However, you can go with the private 3 or 4 days desert tour to Erg Chebbi from Marrakech.
Are there any sand dunes in Zagora Desert?
The Desert of Zagora is a flat barren & rocky desert with a small sand dune by the desert camp. The real sand dunes are located either in Erg Chebbi or Erg Chigaga.
What should I pack when I travel to the desert?
On your next Morocco desert tour, make sure you pack the following
- Long hiking pants – it enhances your comfort while riding on the camel
