About this tour

5-Day Round-Trip Desert Tour from Agadir to Erg Chegaga

Discover Morocco’s most diverse and breathtaking landscapes on this 5-day desert adventure from Agadir. Travel through the colorful Berber towns of the Souss Valley and explore ancient kasbahs. Wander palm-filled oases and cross dramatic mountain ranges on your way to the remote Sahara.
