Marrakech City Life sells a round trip that does not have to be one: on day 3 you can take an optional transfer from Merzouga to Fes or to Agadir instead of the drive back to Marrakech. Its second listing goes to Fes directly. On both, the first night is in the Dades area and the camp comes in a standard, an upgraded and a private royal version.

Taken from the operator’s product page and option list on the booking platform. Details the page does not give are left out.

The round trip

The van is air-conditioned with Wi-Fi, and your luggage stays in it for all three days. Pickup details arrive from 6 pm the day before. The first night is in the Dades Valley, in an air-conditioned room or suite with a private bathroom. In the camp you get Berber clothing to wear, drumming and sandboarding, and camel rides at sunrise and sunset. For winter the listing promises warm blankets; it does not mention heating.

Picking the camp option

Both tours carry a luxury camp in the title, “W Luxury Camp & Food” and “with Luxury Camp”, and sell it as an option: the first bookable option is the standard camp, and the luxury or deluxe tent sits next to it. “Food” stands for breakfasts and dinners; on the round trip, lunch and tips are paid on the road. On the booking page, pick the option with the tent you want.

The tour to Fes

The first night is in the Dades Gorge, day 2 walks the Todra Gorge and reaches the dunes at sunset, day 3 crosses the Ziz Valley and the Middle Atlas to your hotel in Fes. The listing asks you to bring warm clothes for winter evenings and shoes for walking on sand. It does not say whether lunch is included or what vehicle is used. The other tours to Fes are compared on Marrakech to Fes via the desert.

Extras on the spot

On both tours the local guide at the Ait Ben Haddou kasbah is not included, and quads and buggies are hired on site from locals. Only the private premium option includes a quad ride.

What guests say about Marrakech City Life

From the round trip and the tour to Fes. Guests praise the small bus, the guides and a tour leader who checked the camp before arrival; one found the long, winding drive hard on the stomach.

“This desert tour is a must do! It is great value for money, and not only do u get to see the desert but many other attractions along the way, which make the drive enjoyable. Perfect for a solo traveller, as the bus is small so it’s easy to get to know people quickly. Moha Bouni was an incredible …”

“The journey was very long. In our opinion, there were several stops that were not necessarily useful. Frequent guided stops with a guide to pay.
