We crossed the Atlas Mountains and stopped at several beautiful places along the way, including Aït Ben Haddou and the Dades Valley. The landscapes were absolutely amazing and gave us a great opportunity to see a different side of Morocco.

      The highlight of the trip was definitely arriving in Merzouga and experiencing the Sahara desert. The camel ride through the Erg Chebbi dunes at sunset was beautiful, and spending the night at the desert camp was a very special experience. The dinner, atmosphere and night under the stars made the whole experience unforgettable. It was a long journey, but completely worth it. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Morocco.
