Marrakesh

Your grand journey begin with the break of dawn, as you embark on a drive from the vibrant city of Marrakech to Imlil, the stepping stone to the majestic Mount Toubkal. Upon arrival, you will be introduced to your guide, muleteer, and cook, who will ensure your belongings are well taken care of. Your adventure begins with a brief hike to the quaint village of Aroumd, perched at an altitude of 2000 meters. From this point, you will traverse the expansive flood plain of Ait Mizane, initiating a challenging ascent of 1207 meters. Your path will zigzag, following the tracks of mules, leading you past the sacred shrine of Sidi Chamharouch. As the afternoon wanes, you will reach the Toubkal Hut, nestled at a lofty 3200 meters. Here, you will settle in for a well-deserved dinner and an overnight stay, under the starlit Moroccan sky. Your epic adventure awaits.
Day 2 Imlil
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Imlil

Embrace the break of dawn as you embark on a 10-hour journey of discovery and adventure. The ascent to the Toubkal summit is a thrilling scramble across rugged terrains, a test of your hiking prowess, especially in the frosty embrace of the winter season. Four hours into your journey, you’ll find yourself standing atop the Toubkal summit, soaring at 4167 meters. Here, you’ll be greeted by a panorama that stretches across the rooftop of North Africa. To the east, the vast expanse of the Sahara desert unfolds before your eyes. To the west, the peaks of the Nfiss Valley frame the distant Atlantic coast. Celebrate your achievement with a hearty breakfast at the summit, toasting to the vistas that surround you. Afterward, make your way to the base of the Toubkal hut for a well-earned lunch. As the afternoon wanes, descend to Imlil, where a rejuvenating Hammam awaits. Cap off the day with a sumptuous dinner and a restful night at your hotel. Your journey, a testament to your spirit of adventure, ends here, but the memories will last a lifetime.
Day 3 Boumalne Dades
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Boumalne Dades

As dawn breaks and you’ve savored your breakfast, bid farewell to the majestic Toubkal summit. Your journey now takes a sandy turn as you embark on your Moroccan Sahara desert adventure. Venture across the serpentine Tizi N’tichka Pass, leading you to the earthen fortress of Kasbah Ait Ben Hadou. This timeless hamlet, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has been the backdrop for many a Hollywood epic. A local guide awaits to whisk you through the village, unveiling the secrets of its 17th-century architecture. Post a leisurely lunch, your journey resumes towards the cinematic city of Ouarzazate. The iconic Atlas Film Studios, visible at the city’s entrance, offers guided tours throughout the day for those intrigued by the magic of moviemaking. Next, you’ll traverse to the verdant oasis of Skoura, home to Morocco’s best-preserved Kasbah: Amridil. A visit here offers a glimpse into the Berber culture, architecture, and lifestyle that thrives amidst the oases. As the afternoon sun dips, your journey continues to Boumalne Dades. You’ll cruise past the ’Road of 1001 Kasbahs’ and the fragrant ’Valley of the Roses’. Consider pausing at local artisanal distilleries to discover the intricate process behind their creations. As twilight descends, you’ll find yourself at the precipice of the Dades canyons, where your hotel nestles. Here, you’ll dine and rest, lulled by the whispers of the desert night.
Day 4 Merzouga

Merzouga

As the morning sun casts its golden rays, your journey for the day commences towards Tinghir, a town steeped in history as a French military stronghold during the 20th-century occupation. It also boasts a rich Jewish heritage and a legacy of exquisite silver jewelry craftsmanship. Accompanied by your local guide, you’ll meander through the lush oasis and marvel at the towering grandeur of the Todgha Canyons. As the afternoon unfurls, your path leads to Rissani, a sacred town renowned as the cradle of the Alaouite dynasty that currently reigns over Morocco. Before you proceed to Merzouga, take a moment to explore the bustling dates market. Upon arrival in Merzouga, a camel caravan awaits to escort you on an unforgettable journey to Erg Chebbi. Pause at the zenith of the sand dunes to witness the sun’s descent over the horizon, painting the dunes in a kaleidoscope of colors. As darkness gently blankets the desert, you’ll arrive at your secluded Sahara desert camp. After settling into your tent, prepare for a night of enchantment under the starlit sky. A sumptuous Moroccan feast awaits, followed by a cozy evening around the campfire, where the rhythmic beats of Tam Tam drums played by your nomad hosts fill the air. Enjoy this sublime desert symphony!
Day 5 Ouarzazate
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Ouarzazate

Awaken at dawn’s first light, if you so choose, to witness the sun’s golden ascent over the horizon, followed by a nourishing breakfast. Then, embark on a camel journey back to the sanctuary of the camp operator’s lodge. Your trusted driver awaits to guide you on a scenic journey back to Marrakech, a voyage that takes you past the cinematic landscapes of Ouarzazate and the majestic peaks of the High Atlas Mountains. Your adventure through the Atlas Mountains and the sweeping Sahara comes to a close upon your return to your chosen Marrakech haven, be it a traditional riad, a comfortable hotel, or another preferred location.
