FAQ

Everything You Need to Know

The most common questions answered before you book your private desert tour in Morocco.

What makes this a "private" desert tour?
Your group is the only one — no strangers, no shared vehicles, no fixed schedules. A private desert tour from Marrakech means everything runs at your pace, with a licensed Morocco guide devoted entirely to your party from departure to return.
How far is the Sahara from Marrakech?
Zagora is ~360km (5.5–6h drive). Merzouga / Erg Chebbi is ~560km (9–10h). Both journeys pass through some of Morocco's most spectacular landscapes — the High Atlas mountains, ancient kasbahs, and the lush Drâa Valley palmeraies — before reaching the open Sahara desert.
What is the best time of year?
October to April offers comfortable temperatures (15°C–28°C). Summer (June–August) can reach 45°C+ and is not recommended. March–May and September–November are peak periods for private desert tours in Morocco — book at least 3–4 weeks in advance.
Is the desert camp really luxurious?
Yes. Our private luxury camps feature proper beds (not floor mats), ensuite bathrooms with hot water, solar electricity, high-quality textiles, and gourmet meals prepared fresh daily.
Do you offer group discounts?
Yes! Moratra offers special group discount rates for 4 or more people on all private desert tours in Morocco — save up to 15% per person. Contact us via WhatsApp or the booking form below for a personalised Morocco group quote.
Can children and elderly travelers join?

Private 4×4 transport, all accommodation, all meals, camel trek, licensed guide, and all listed activities. Not included: flights, travel insurance, and optional extras such as quad biking.
