Camila R.BrazilFrequently Asked Questions
How far is the Sahara Desert from Fes?
The drive from Fes to the Merzouga desert (Erg Chebbi dunes) is about 7-8 hours. Our Fes desert tours make this a scenic and comfortable journey, with stops in the cedar forests to see Barbary apes and the beautiful Ziz Valley.
Is it better to start a desert tour from Fes or Marrakech?
Both are great options! Fes is slightly closer to the Merzouga dunes, making the drive a bit shorter. A Fes to Marrakech desert tour is one of the most popular and efficient ways to see the desert and travel between Morocco's two most famous cities.
Can I visit Chefchaouen as a day trip from Fes?
Yes, a day trip to Chefchaouen from Fes is very popular and highly recommended. The drive is approximately 3.5-4 hours each way, giving you several hours to explore the beautiful blue city, have lunch, and shop for local crafts.
What is included in a Fes to Marrakech desert tour?
Our tours typically include private transportation, a professional driver/guide, accommodation (including one night in a luxury desert camp), daily breakfasts and dinners, and a camel trek in the Sahara. It's a comprehensive package for a hassle-free adventure.
How much time do I need to explore Fes itself?
We recommend at least one full day to explore the vast Fes el-Bali (the old medina) with a local guide. Two days would allow you to see the medina at a more relaxed pace and also explore other parts of the city like the Jewish Quarter (Mellah) and the Royal Palace gates.
