What to pack for 3 day desert tour from marrakech to fes

Packing for a trip to the Sahara Desert requires careful consideration of the climate and terrain. Here are some essential items you should include in your packing list:

1. Lightweight and breathable clothing: Opt for loose-fitting, lightweight clothing made from natural fibers like cotton or linen. This will help keep you cool during the day and warm during the chilly desert nights.

2. Sun protection: The desert sun can be intense, so pack a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen with a high SPF. Don’t forget to apply sunscreen regularly to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.

3. Comfortable footwear: Choose sturdy, closed-toe shoes that can withstand walking on sand and rocky terrain. Sandals or flip-flops are not recommended as they offer little protection and can be uncomfortable.

4. Layers and warm clothing: Although the desert can be scorching hot during the day, temperatures can drop significantly at night. Pack warm layers, such as a light jacket or sweater, to stay comfortable during the cooler evenings.

5. Water and hydration: It’s crucial to stay hydrated in the desert to avoid dehydration. Pack a reusable water bottle and drink plenty of water throughout the day. It’s also a good idea to bring rehydration salts or electrolyte tablets to replenish any lost minerals.

Remember to pack lightly and avoid bringing unnecessary items. The tour will provide most of the essentials, including bedding, food, and water. You should also bring a small backpack or day bag to carry your personal belongings during the day.

As we wind our way through the mountain passes, you’ll be treated to panoramic views of snow-capped peaks, lush valleys, and traditional Berber villages. Our first stop is Ait Ben Haddou, a UNESCO World Heritage site and an ancient fortified city that has served as the backdrop for many famous movies. Explore the intricate maze of narrow streets, visit traditional kasbahs, and immerse yourself in the rich history of this remarkable place.

Take a stroll through the oasis, and marvel at the harmonious coexistence of nature and human life.

From the oasis, we continue our journey to the Todgha Canyon, a majestic natural wonder carved out by the Todgha River.

Hop on the back of a camel and embark on a camel trek across the golden dunes. As you traverse the undulating dunes, you’ll be captivated by the ever-changing colors of the desert, from golden hues to vibrant oranges. Reach our desert camp just in time to witness a breathtaking sunset, as the sun dips below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the vast expanse of sand. Spend the night under a blanket of stars, as you listen to the rhythmic beats of traditional Berber music and indulge in a delicious Moroccan feast.

Day 3 Merzouga - Ziz Valley - Middle Atlas - Ifrane - Fes

Take in the breathtaking views as we wind our way through the valley, capturing stunning photos along the way.

Continuing our journey, we enter the Middle Atlas Mountains, a mountain range that offers a peaceful respite from the bustling cities. Nestled within these mountains is Ifrane, a charming town often referred to as “Little Switzerland” due to its European-inspired architecture and pristine surroundings. Take a stroll through the town’s beautifully manicured gardens, and marvel at the quaint chalet-style houses that line the streets.

Finally, we arrive in Fes, one of Morocco’s most fascinating cities. Known for its labyrinthine medina, ancient mosques, and vibrant souks, Fes offers a glimpse into the country’s rich cultural heritage.
