Desert Tours from Agadir

Merzouga is around 10 hours of driving from Agadir, so the trip is split with an overnight stop on the way, usually in Taroudant or Ouarzazate. The Erg Chigaga dunes near Mhamid are closer, about 7 hours via Tata and Foum Zguid.

Four days: Agadir to Ouarzazate, on to the dunes for a night in the desert camp, then the return through the Draa Valley and Anti-Atlas. Day trips from Agadir go to Paradise Valley, Taroudant or Essaouira rather than the Sahara.
