Beginning at the maritime gateway connecting Europe and Africa, this private overland adventure traverses four distinct climatic zones. From the breezy Mediterranean ramparts of Tangier, your private 4x4 with an expert Berber driver-guide ascends the cedar forests of Azrou, crosses the Ziz River gorges, and arrives at the golden peaks of Erg Chebbi.
