Questions

Is it too long for one day?

It is the longest of the Ouarzazate day trips: nine to ten hours and about 165 km. If you prefer a gentler pace, combine the gorge with a night in the area and see more of it.

Can I turn this day trip into an overnight tour?

Yes. We can extend it with a night at Erg Chebbi's luxury camps or on the Erg Zahar trek, or link several excursions into one multi-day journey. Tell us what you have in mind.
