5-Day Tour from Marrakech to Chefchaouen via Sahara Desert & Fez

The full Morocco crossing in five days — Marrakech across the Atlas to Ait Ben Haddou and Ouarzazate, sleep among the dunes of Erg Chebbi at Merzouga, climb back through Dades Valley to Fez, end with a sunset over the blue medina of Chefchaouen.

This is the full Morocco crossing done one way in five days — from Marrakech across the High Atlas, through cinematic kasbah country to the orange dunes of Erg Chebbi at Merzouga, then back over the mountains to the medieval medina of Fez and finally up into the Rif to Chefchaouen. The south-to-north route most operators don't offer, perfect for travellers continuing on to Tangier and Spain.
