Frequently asked questions
Your questions about tours from Errachidia
Can we reach camp the day we land?
Often yes, if the flight is not late afternoon. Share the schedule and we will say yes or book a first night in Errachidia instead of promising a sunset you would miss.
Is Errachidia itself a sightseeing city?
It is a hub: airport, palmeraie, road. The destination is Erg Chebbi. We do not pad the itinerary with invented city tours.
What are the typical routes from Errachidia?
Ziz Valley to Erfoud and Merzouga the same afternoon if you land in time. Then west along the Road of a Thousand Kasbahs, or north through the Middle Atlas to Fes.
How many days do I need for a tour from Errachidia?
One night in camp is possible. Two nights is better. Use Errachidia when the Sahara is the reason you came, not an add-on.

2-day Errachidia–Merzouga stays are the point of this gateway. 3–5 day tours continue to Todra, Dades, Ouarzazate, Marrakech or Fes.
