2-day Zagora desert tour with overnight camp
Two days are enough to touch the desert: the road crosses the Atlas at the Tichka pass, drops to Agdz, then follows the Draa valley and its ribbon of palm groves to Zagora. Sunset camel ride, night in a desert camp.
It is the short formula: fewer dunes than Merzouga, but a real camp and two full days. The right choice when the calendar will not stretch to three.

Frequently asked questions
Will I see big dunes?
No — for Erg Chebbi and the big dunes you need the 3-day Merzouga tour. Zagora offers stone desert and palm groves.
Is the camp basic?
It is a simple camp: beds, blankets, shared washrooms. Upgraded comfort exists at a supplement.
How many hours of driving?
Around seven a day, broken by stops. It is a driving tour — we say so plainly.
