Getting There

  • Bus

    From Marrakech, head to the bus station (CTM or Supratours) located in the Gueliz district. Purchase a ticket for a bus to Merzouga, which takes about 9-10 hours and usually departs in the early morning or late evening. Ensure you confirm the schedule as it can vary. The bus will take you directly to Merzouga, where you can arrange for a local guide or transport to DunesTours once you arrive in the town.

    At the Marrakech taxi station near the medina, look for shared taxis (known as 'grand taxis') heading to Merzouga. These taxis usually accommodate six passengers and are a faster option than the bus. Once you arrive in Merzouga, you can ask locals for directions to DunesTours or simply contact them ahead of time to arrange a pick-up.
