The first stop of the day is Ifrane, a small mountain town known for its alpine-style architecture, tidy streets, and cool climate. Due to its winter snowfall and European-style buildings, many visitors refer to it as the Switzerland of Morocco. The road then continues to the cedar forests near Azrou, home to groups of Barbary macaques that live freely among the trees. Visitors often take time here to walk through the forest and observe the monkeys in their natural surroundings.

Continuing through the Middle Atlas Mountains, the route passes through Midelt, where there is time to stop for lunch before continuing the drive south. In the afternoon, the scenery begins to change as the road descends toward the Ziz Valley, a vast oasis lined with thousands of palm trees stretching along the river. 

By late afternoon, the desert village of Merzouga appears at the edge of the Sahara. Here the journey continues with a camel ride across the dunes of Erg Chebbi. As the camels move slowly through the sand, the sunset colors transform the desert landscape. After arriving at the desert camp hidden among the dunes, dinner will be served under the open sky. Later in the evening, traditional music is often played around the campfire while travelers enjoy the quiet atmosphere of the Sahara.
