Depart your Marrakech to Erg Chigaga desert tour after breakfast, winding up through the Atlas Mountains over the Tichka Pass, the pass rises to 2260 meters above sea level, so the views are quite splendid. Plenty of stops are made for taking in the scenery and photography. We arrive in ouarzazate mid afternoon where we have a visit for Taourirt Kasbah before lunch. Continue to Zagora.

These dunes are far away from civilization, in the desert proper … and the silence and the expanse of the sand are overwhelming.
