    The Zagora Desert is much more arid and rocky with fewer and smaller dunes than Merzouga, but it’s closer to Marrakech. It is a recommended option for travelers who want to enjoy a night in tents but don’t have enough time to travel to Merzouga. For the rest, our 3-day Merzouga excursion is strongly recommended.
