    Things to Know Before Going on a 4-Day Tour from Marrakech to Merzouga
    If you’re planning a 4-day desert tour from Marrakech to Merzouga, here are some important things to keep in mind:

    Long Driving Hours 🚗

    The journey from Marrakech to Merzouga is around 9-10 hours, so expect long drives each day.

    There will be multiple stops for sightseeing, meals, and rest breaks to make the journey more enjoyable.

    Weather Conditions

    Summers (June-August) can be extremely hot in the desert, with temperatures exceeding 40°C (104°F).

    Winters (December-February) can be cold, especially at night, with temperatures dropping close to 0°C (32°F).

    Pack accordingly, with light clothing for the day and warm layers for the night.

    Packing Essentials

    Comfortable shoes for walking in the desert and around kasbahs.

    Sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat to protect yourself from the sun.

    A scarf or turban to protect from the wind and sand during the camel trek.

    Power bank as charging facilities in the desert camp may be limited.

    Camel Trekking Experience

    You’ll ride a camel for about 45 minutes to 1 hour to reach the desert camp.

    Nights in the desert are magical, with Berber music, delicious food, and a sky full of stars.

    Some camps and shops may not accept credit cards.

    Food and Dietary Needs

    Meals are typically Moroccan cuisine, including tajines, couscous, and grilled meats.

    Vegetarian and vegan options are usually available—just inform your guide in advance.

    Best Time to Visit
