We booked on a 3 day tour out of Marrakesh, heading South through the Atlas Mountains, towards the border with Algeria and the famous Sand dunes of Erg Chebbi. On the way we stop to see mud cities built hundreds of years ago (Aït Benhaddou), a green oasis in the desert (Tinghir), an impressive Gorge (The Todgha Gorges), before getting to the main attraction, around 560km away from Marrakesh, riding camels through the amazing sand dunes at Merzouga.
Unfortunately the tour was quite rushed, and apparently they are all like that as no matter who you book with you get chucked on with the same groups, but the sites themselves were still very impressive. If I could do it again I would try and rent a car and do it myself taking a week instead of 3 days. Still, some awesome site.
