The Sahara experience
everyone talks about
The main trip leaves Tangier on the morning of the 22nd. If you have class that day, this one is for you: we leave on the 23rd, stop in Chefchaouen on the way, and then drive south through the night while you sleep.
You lose a day on the road and gain the best sunrise of the trip — you reach the dunes just before first light. From there it's the same Morocco as everyone else: the Sahara, Aït Ben Haddou and Marrakech.
