The Ultimate Morocco Loop: Sand & Sea

Why choose between the desert and the ocean when you can have both? This diverse 6-day journey takes you on a magnificent loop from Marrakech, crossing the High Atlas Mountains to the golden dunes of Merzouga, and then traversing the Anti-Atlas to the breezy Atlantic coast.

Experience the silence of the Sahara with a sunset camel trek and a night in a luxury camp. Then, watch the landscape shift dramatically as you travel through the saffron fields of Taliouine and the Argan forests to the ancient walled city of Taroudant and the blue-and-white fishing port of Essaouira.

This tour offers the most complete contrast of Moroccan landscapes: snow-capped peaks, endless sand, lush oases, and crashing ocean waves.

Traveler Reviews

Lucas & Sarah UK • April 2025

"The variety on this trip is insane. One day we were on camels in the dunes, two days later we were eating fresh fish by the ocean. Mbarek organized it perfectly."

Emily R. USA • Feb 2025

"Taroudant was a hidden gem we didn't expect to love so much. Ending in relaxed Essaouira was the perfect way to finish after the desert adventure."
