Ouarzazate is the door of the desert — they call it the Hollywood of Africa for the film studios — sitting where the High Atlas, the Sahara and the Draa Valley meet. The UNESCO kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou is just up the road, and the dunes are an easy run east.
From Ouarzazate we run 4 desert tours, from a quick overnight in the Draa to a week-long expedition that reaches both great dune seas — Erg Chebbi at Merzouga and the wild, roadless Erg Chigaga. Brahim and our drivers know every piste out here.
See them on our Ouarzazate tours page, and send us a message when you are ready.
