CELEBRATE NEW YEAR ON A PRIVATE THREE-DAY ROUTE FROM MARRAKECH TO ERG CHEBBI, WITH AIT BEN HADDOU, DADES, A CAMEL TREK AND A NIGHT IN THE SAHARA. THIS PRIVATE CIRCUIT STARTS AND FINISHES IN MARRAKECH, WITH THE ROUTE BUILT AROUND MERZOUGA AND THE DISTINCTIVE LANDSCAPES BETWEEN EACH OVERNIGHT STOP.

Detailed 3-Day Marrakech to Merzouga Itinerary


Daily departure and arrival times are approximate. Traffic, weather, seasonal daylight and the time spent at individual stops can affect the schedule.

Before departure, share your hotel or riad details, luggage needs and priority sights so the driver can prepare the most practical version of the route.


DAY 1: MARRAKECH - AIT BEN HADDOU - OUARZAZATE - DADES GORGES

Travel privately from Marrakech to Dades Gorges via Ait Ben Haddou and Ouarzazate. Your driver keeps the day practical while leaving enough flexibility for scenic pauses, short walks and local visits along the route. At Ait Ben Haddou, walk through the earthen ksar and look across the Ounila Valley from this UNESCO-listed landmark. Ouarzazate introduces the kasbah landscapes and film locations of southern Morocco before the road continues deeper into the valleys. The main experiences are gorge scenery and short walks, kasbah architecture and southern Morocco’s film landscapes. Exact timing can shift with traffic, weather and opening hours, so the day is planned with enough margin to stay relaxed.


DAY 2: DADES GORGES - TODRA GORGE - RISSANI - MERZOUGA

After breakfast, depart Dades Gorges for Merzouga. Rather than rushing through Todra Gorge and Rissani, the itinerary gives these places a meaningful role in the day and keeps the driving balanced with sightseeing. Rissani offers a glimpse of the Tafilalt’s trading history and, on market days, one of the region’s liveliest traditional souks. Merzouga sits beside the Erg Chebbi dunes, where the road gives way to camel trekking, desert sunsets and an overnight Sahara atmosphere. Look forward to a camel trek into Erg Chebbi, sunset over the dunes, a Sahara camp evening. Your driver manages the practical side of the route while you focus on the scenery, local atmosphere and the places included in the itinerary.


DAY 3: MERZOUGA - RISSANI - AGDZ - OUAZAZATTE - MARRAKECH

Continue from Merzouga to Marrakech on a private route through Rissani, Agdz and Ouazazatte. The schedule is deliberately adaptable, so road conditions, daylight and your interests can shape the exact timing of each stop.

To help us provide the most accurate quotation, please include your travel dates, number of travelers, pickup location in Marrakech, preferred accommodation level and any special requests.

You can also mention your preferences for the desert camp, New Year’s Eve dinner or celebration, camel trekking, child seats, dietary requirements, luggage or any places you would especially like to visit along the route. Because New Year is one of the busiest periods for Sahara tours, early booking is strongly recommended so we can secure suitable hotels, desert camp availability and private transport.


Chat on WhatsApp About Your New Year Sahara Tour

Have a question before booking? Contact us directly on WhatsApp for quick and personal assistance. You can ask about availability, departure time from Marrakech, travel times, desert camp options, camel trekking, New Year’s Eve arrangements, accommodation, luggage, children or any other part of your Sahara journey.

We are happy to explain the itinerary, answer practical questions and help you make adjustments before you confirm. WhatsApp is also a convenient way to stay in contact with us while planning your New Year experience in Merzouga.


Cancellation Policy

We want you to understand the booking conditions clearly before confirming your reservation. Our cancellation and refund policy explains the applicable deadlines, date changes, possible non-refundable supplier costs and what happens in exceptional circumstances.

Please note that New Year bookings may be subject to stricter cancellation conditions because hotels, riads and desert camps often require advance payment during this high-demand period. Any specific non-refundable conditions will be clearly explained before you confirm your booking.


How to Get the Best Price

For the best possible price, send us your exact New Year travel dates, number of travelers, pickup location in Marrakech and preferred accommodation level. The more information we have, the more accurately we can plan the tour and avoid unnecessary costs.

New Year is a very popular time to visit Merzouga, so booking early can help secure better accommodation and camp options before availability becomes limited. Traveling with a larger private group can also reduce the price per person. If you are working with a particular budget, let us know. We can suggest suitable hotel and camp options, route adjustments and inclusions to create good value while maintaining the quality of your private Sahara experience.


What Does a Private 3-Day New Year Sahara Tour from Marrakech Mean?

This private tour is designed exclusively for you and the people traveling with you. You do not join an unrelated group, and your private driver and vehicle are reserved for your booking throughout the agreed itinerary.

Your tour can also include a desert camp, camel trekking, New Year’s Eve dinner or celebration, accommodation and other services according to your confirmed booking. This private format gives you more comfort, flexibility and personal attention than a shared group tour.
