Errachidia is the provincial capital of southeastern Morocco — a quiet, authentic city surrounded by some of the most spectacular desert scenery in North Africa. Positioned between the Ziz Gorges, the Ziz Valley palm oasis, and the legendary Erg Chebbi dunes of Merzouga, it is Morocco’s ultimate desert gateway.
Few tourists make the effort to discover Errachidia — which is precisely what makes it so special. Morocco Desert Discovery’s tours from Errachidia take you deep into landscapes that most travelers never see: the rust-red Ziz Gorges, the emerald palm oasis of the Ziz Valley, and the vast fossil sites of the Tafilalt region.
