Zagora – A Taste of the Sahara
Venture into the edge of the Sahara with a journey to the Zagora Desert, a gateway to Morocco’s vast southern landscapes. Known for its dramatic rock formations, sweeping desert plains, and palm-filled oases, Zagora offers an authentic and accessible desert experience.
This day trip takes you through the Draa Valley, lined with ancient kasbahs and lush date palms, before reaching the peaceful dunes of Zagora. Though smaller than those in Merzouga, these dunes still deliver the magic of the Sahara—golden sands, camel treks, and mesmerizing sunsets that light up the horizon.
Enjoy a traditional meal under a nomadic tent, ride a camel across the dunes, and experience the calm of the desert where time seems to stand still. For those short on time but dreaming of the Sahara, Zagora is the perfect desert escape.
