Choose between two desert routes and a coastal journey
The tour titles can sound similar, yet the stops and overnight experiences differ. Compare what the published itinerary includes rather than treating an eight-day coast trip as a longer Sahara tour. Each option starts in Agadir, but the route, time in the dunes and last transfer need separate checks.

| Decision | 4-day Erg Lihoudi | 6-day Erg Chigaga | 8-day Anti-Atlas/Atlantic |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main landscape | Draa Valley and Erg Lihoudi | Erg Chigaga and south Morocco | Anti-Atlas towns and Atlantic coast |
| Camp night | One listed | One listed | None listed |
| Marrakech | Not the listed final overnight | Night before return to Agadir | Day seven, then airport transfer to confirm |
| Next action | Check the Ouarzazate overnights | Confirm Chigaga camp and day-five hotel | Confirm the final airport |
The four-day Agadir to Erg Lihoudi offer travels through Taroudant and Ouarzazate. Its camp night is on day two, followed by a return through the oasis route. The six-day Agadir to Erg Chigaga offer reaches a Chigaga camp, continues through Zagora and Ouarzazate, then spends a night in Marrakech and returns to Agadir. The eight-day Anti-Atlas and Atlantic offer is a coastal circuit through Tafraoute, Tiznit, Taghazout, Essaouira, Oualidia and El Jadida; it does not include a Sahara camp.
Match the route to your trip
If one night in the dunes and a four-day schedule fit your dates, start with Erg Lihoudi. If you want Erg Chigaga specifically and have six days, check its longer route and the overnight in Marrakech. If you prefer mountain towns and the coast, consider the eight-day journey, then clarify the final transfer. The day-by-day offer is the authority for inclusions and any quoted adaptation.
What to verify before choosing
Ask for the exact camp or hotels, departure point, travel party size, meal plan, road approach and final drop-off. The eight-day offer specifies that the final airport transfer is agreed for Marrakech or Agadir, so do not assume one fixed end city. For a desert tour, check the camp category and any camel ride or alternative transport in the quotation.
Prepare after you choose
