Chefchaouen Day Trip from Fes
A day in the blue city: its alleys, the Kasbah and the view from the Spanish Mosque.
Two nights away from the city: 4x4 around Erg Chebbi, nomad families and a desert camp. Want to change something? Every tour can be adapted: more days, other stops, other hotels.
We leave Fes through the Middle Atlas: Ifrane, the cedar forest of Azrou with its Barbary monkeys and the high plateaus of Midelt. Then the Ziz Valley and its palm groves lead us to Merzouga, where camels take us into the dunes for a night in a Berber camp.
A whole day in the desert by 4x4: around the dunes of Erg Chebbi, the Gnawa village of Khamlia and its music, nomad families, the black desert and the old kasbahs of Rissani. Optional sandboarding or quad. Evening at the camp around the fire.
Sunrise over the dunes and camel ride back to Merzouga. We drive north through the palm groves of the Ziz Valley and the plateaus of Midelt, then cross the cedar forests of the Middle Atlas, home of the Barbary macaques, and Ifrane, the 'Switzerland of Morocco', before reaching Fes.
