Unlike the 4 days desert tour from Marrakech; which offers a less hassle experience. The 3 days Marrakech to Merzouga desert tour offers the opportunity to explore the desert in the shortest period of time being the closest desert to Marrakech compared to Erg Chebbi. However, if you have more time in your travel plan, then we recommend taking a look at the 5 days Sahara desert tour from Marrakech.
