Morocco Itinerary 3 days
For a weekend or 3-day trip, it’s best to focus on the destination you’re visiting. Consider a private guided tour to explore the historical monuments and savor Moroccan cuisine. From Marrakech or from Fes, you can take a 3-day desert tour to the Erg Chebbi dunes. This is the minimum amount of time required for an authentic Sahara experience in the Merzouga area.

If you have the full 4 days, you can opt for a desert tour to Merzouga, which is the perfect plan for an immersive experience.
