Zagora. There where the Sahara commence vraiment. Si Merzouga is the desert que all the monde knows, Zagora is celui que the connaisseurs prefer. Ici, pas de foule : juste the valley of the Draa, the most longue palmeraie in Morocco, the poteries vertes de Tamgroute, and the spectaculaires dunes of Chigaga, also vastes que sauvages. La night, in the bivouac de M'hamid, the silence is si profond that you entend the sable glisser on the dunes. Le Sahara tel that you the dream.

It is the most longue oasis in Morocco : 200 km de palm trees-dattiers, de villages en rammed earth and de kasbahs perchees. The couleurs are extraordinaires — l'ocre of the terre, the vert of the palmeraies, the bleu profond of the ciel.

Lunch sous tente nomade, then promenade en camel to tratowards the dunes of sable fin justhan aux grandes dunes of Chigaga. Coucher de soleil spectaculaire.
