What makes this trip Unique?

Our Marrakech to Zagora "mini-circuit" tour is an excellent option for those with limited time to explore the Moroccan Sahara. We offer both shared and private tours to cater to your preferences.

In the 16th century, during the Saadian Dynasty, Morocco's borders reached the Niger River in the Sahel. The Drâa-Taghaza-Timbuktu route became the main path for trans-Saharan trade, exchanging salt, gold, local goods, and European products, rivalled only by the Silk Road.

Zagora Oasis, a key station on this route, was a crossroads for caravans to restock and pay dues for passage and security, fostering economic and social transformation.

The panel highlights both the epic of this era and the Zagora Oasis's significance in trans-Saharan trade.

This excursion provides a one-of-a-kind opportunity to immerse yourself in the captivating culture, rich history, and breathtaking natural landscapes of the region, creating an unforgettable adventure. We hope you'll consider joining us for this unique experience.
