This 11-day family adventure tour starting in Fez and traveling via the Merzouga Sahara is built for families who want a mix of culture, nature, and hands-on experiences—without exhausting driving days. The extra time (compared to 7–9 day routes) lets you slow the pace, add kid-friendly activities, and include more scenic stops so the journey feels like part of the vacation, not just transportation.

You’ll move from the historical atmosphere of Fez into the green Middle Atlas (Ifrane and cedar forests), then through wide valleys and palm oases toward the Erg Chebbi dunes. In Merzouga, your family can choose a classic sunset camel ride or a comfortable 4×4 transfer into the dunes, followed by a night in a desert camp. Adventure elements can be tailored to your comfort level: gentle dune walks and sandboarding for kids, optional quad/buggy rides for teens/adults, and short, scenic hikes in gorges and valleys. Along the way, you’ll visit Morocco’s famous landscapes—Ziz Valley, Todra Gorge, Dades Valley, Rose Valley, Skoura Oasis, Aït Benhaddou—and finish with time in Marrakech (or return to Fez if you prefer a loop).

Because this is family-focused, the tour is designed with: regular restroom/snack breaks, flexible start times, simpler walking options, and accommodation choices that prioritize comfort (family rooms or connecting rooms where possible). Dietary needs and “not-too-spicy” meal requests can be managed when shared in advance.
