desert excursion

A trip to Morocco holds, in the imagination of visitors to the Kingdom, its share of adventures, imagined scenarios and must-see locations. This is certainly true of the Fes medina, where every stay in this thousand-year-old city ends with a photo of an alleyway where sunlight pierces through the moucharabieh, and a donkey weaves between the stalls to the rhythm of « ballak! »

One of the standout experiences that Riad Jamai can offer is the desert excursion — call it an ambition, a wish, an experience, whatever you like. The riad in the Andalusian quarter, thanks to one of its partners, makes it possible to set foot in the Sahara desert.

Stars filling your eyes on this desert tour

Departing from Riad fes called Jamaï, guests can set off for this 2-night, 3-day tour of the Moroccan desert. You’ll discover exceptional landscapes and panoramas along the route taken by our partner. Whether for two people or a group, the vehicles are adapted to the number of travelers heading into the desert.

Morocco’s sand desert, starting from Fes, is located about 6 hours away by road, so this is truly an excursion into the very heart of Berber country that the riad offers you. In complete safety, you can set off for 3 days and 2 nights to camp a few hours from the crowds of Fes and its thousand-year-old alleyways, to find calm and tranquility.

The Sahara desert tour, a true success!

The riad team has experienced nights of camping in the desert, and the best formula is the one that allows you to spend time in the desert in wonder. This time should be devoted to the environment of this unique and exceptional landscape; few people have yet experienced this soothing experience of sleeping by a campfire in the Sahara desert.

Here is the package designed for riad guests:

Departure on the first day with transport from Fes to a partner inn to welcome travelers for the night. Half-board is provided for guests of Riad Jamai, as well as accommodation for the night at the inn. Then the next day, departure toward the desert and its iconic sights that are part of general culture, and then, the big moment: camping and a night with the nomads — a night in a tent in the desert under a blanket of stars, each more beautiful than the last, and a silence, a beautiful and deep silence to lull your nights. But since the riad wants to leave you with an unforgettable memory, together with our partner, we offer an excursion on dromedaries rather than camels, for those who know the difference.
