Tour FAQ

Questions About Booking a Desert Tour

Can the tour start from Marrakech or Fes? +
Yes, most multi-day tours can begin in Marrakech, Fes, or directly in Merzouga. Tell us your arrival city and we'll build the route around it.
How many people join each tour? +
Tours are private for your group only — we don't merge you with other travelers unless you specifically want a shared departure.
Can I customize the itinerary? +
Absolutely. Extra nights, extra stops, dietary needs, and pacing are all flexible — message us on WhatsApp and we'll adjust the plan.
How far in advance should I book? +
A few days' notice is usually enough, though during peak season (October–April) booking 2–3 weeks ahead gives you more camp availability.
