Private 2 Days Erg Lihoudi Desert Tour From Marrakech


Overview:

The private 2-day Marrakech desert tour to the Erg Lihoudi Dunes in the Sahara Desert near M'hamid is one of our premier tours, thoughtfully designed for customers with limited time who still want a complete desert experience. The Erg Lihoudi dunes represent the best Sahara destination accessible within just two days. While it may not compare to the larger Chigaga dunes, it certainly surpasses the Zagora desert and its surrounding areas.

This private tour offers a unique desert experience in just two days. We will pick you up from your accommodation in Marrakech and take you to discover the Erg Lihoudi dunes, located about an hour south of Zagora. Our Erg Lihoudi desert tours typically include a camel ride, an overnight stay in a private desert camp, Bedouin music around a crackling campfire, and the opportunity to meet the friendly Berber people of the desert.

On your private 2-day tour to the Erg Lihoudi dunes, you will also have the chance to traverse the stunning Tizi n'Tichka High Atlas Mountains, visit the Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah (a UNESCO World Heritage site), explore the Draa Valley with its thousands of palm trees, and experience the vibrant towns of Zagora and Tamegroute before reaching the Erg Lihoudi desert.

This two-day private desert tour is the perfect solution for those who may not have time for a longer adventure. However, if you can extend your stay, we highly recommend organizing a trip to the Erg Chigaga dunes, where you can experience larger sand dunes and a vast wilderness.
