The journey
Fes → Merzouga, your way.
From Fes to Merzouga it is 470 km and about 6h 30 in a private car via Ifrane, Midelt & Ziz gorges — the kind of unhurried road day we built this Marrakech agency around.

Your English-speaking driver meets you at the door, keeps an eye on your flight if you are arriving, and pulls over for photos, a mint tea or lunch whenever the mood takes you — no meter runs, and the fare is agreed in writing before you set off.

Frequently asked
Fes to Merzouga questions.
How long is the drive from Fes to Merzouga?
It is 470 km on the map, and a private transfer is about 6h 30 behind the wheel via Ifrane, Midelt & Ziz gorges, before you add any photo or rest stops. On the longer hauls we pace the day with breaks and never hurry a mountain pass.
How much does a private Fes to Merzouga transfer cost?
One agreed, all-in fare: $435 for a sedan (1–3 guests), $565 for a 4x4 (up to 6), or $630 for a minivan (up to 7). Fuel, tolls, your driver and bottled water are all in; settle it in cash on the day or by transfer beforehand.
Can we stop for photos or sightseeing along the way?
Of course — stopping where you please is the whole point of a private car over the train or a shared shuttle. On this run we can break at Ifrane, Midelt & Ziz gorges and any viewpoint that catches your eye. Want a guided stop? We will quote that as a day tour instead.
Is it better to drive or take the train from Fes to Merzouga?
No useful train runs this way, so a private car — a 4x4 where the road turns rough — is the comfortable option: door to door, pausing wherever you like.
