Next, we go to the cedar woods of Azrou, where you'll find lively Barbary macaques. As we continue south, the environment shifts as we approach the magnificent Ziz Valley, home to large palm groves and breathtaking vistas.

at the late afternoon, arrive at Merzouga, where the huge dunes of Erg Chebbi await. Meet your camel caravan and walk into the desert as the sun sets. Reach our traditional Berber desert camp, where you'll have a wonderful Moroccan meal and the captivating rhythms of Berber music over a campfire. Spend the night in a cozy tent beneath the starlit sky.

Rise early to watch a stunning dawn over the Sahara. After breakfast, travel the Merzouga region, beginning with a visit to a nomadic Berber family to learn about their distinctive lifestyle. Then, drive to the town of Khamlia to experience the deep sounds of Gnawa music, a rich combination of African and Berber traditions.

We'll also visit the seasonal Merzouga Lake, which periodically appears after rains and attracts a variety of species, including flamingos. Discover old fossil beds among the dunes, exposing the Sahara's prehistoric history.

Return to the desert tent for another evening of excellent cuisine and traditional Berber music. Spend the night beneath a canopy of stars, savoring the quiet of the desert.
