About This Experience
The Ait Ben Haddou to Zagora Desert Tour turns the historic ksar into a gateway to southern Morocco, with a scenic journey through valleys, gorges, and increasingly arid landscapes. Rather than rushing toward the desert, the route is designed to feel smooth and well balanced, giving you time to appreciate the changing scenery along the way.
You travel south along kasbah-lined roads and through dramatic canyon landscapes before reaching the desert around Zagora. A camel ride at sunset adds a memorable way to experience the surroundings before you settle into a desert camp for the night beneath wide, open skies.
With accommodation included and a clear plan for the journey, you can relax and focus on the landscapes and atmosphere instead of worrying about the practical details. From the evening desert experience to the following sunrise, the tour leaves you with memorable views and a deeper sense of southern Morocco.
