See the filming locations of the Gladiator, Lawrence of Arabia, and the Kingdom of Heaven as you explore this famous UNESCO site.

Relax in Merzouga, then pack a small overnight bag to take on your camel trek across the Erg Chebbi sand dunes. Arrive at a traditional Berber camp, leave the camels, and walk to the highest dunes to watch the sunset. Spend the night in Berber nomad tents under the stars, listening to music in the middle of the Sahara.

Day 3: Camel trek – Sunrise – Errachidia – Medilt – Atlas Mountains – Ifran – Fes Get up bright and early to see the stunning sunrise over the desert.
