What to expect

Day 1: Marrakech> Tizi N'Tichka> Aït ben Haddou> Ouarzazate> Gorges du Dadès

    A high mountain pass at an altitude of 2,260 m (7,410 ft) above sea level, located in the High Atlas,
    At the top, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the surrounding landscapes. As the road begins to descend towards Ouarzazate, you can marvel at the dry and still regions of the Sahara and the silent peaks of the great Atlas mountains.
  2. Ksar Of Ait-Ben-Haddou
    2h · Admission ticket not included
    An amazing example of the architecture of southern Morocco. An extraordinary set of buildings that offer a complete overview of construction techniques in pre-Saharan lands. The oldest buildings do not appear to be older than the seventeenth century, although their structure and technique extended very early in the valleys of southern Morocco. The site was also one of the many trading posts on the trade route from ancient Sudan to Marrakech through the Dra Valley and the Tizi-n’Telouet Pass.
  3. Taourirt Kasbah
    15m · Admission ticket not included
    Nestled in a landscape of mountains and the Sahara desert, the Kasbah Taourirt is one of the most beautiful kasbah in Morocco. In the past, it was a strategic place controlled by the Glaoui for the route of the Saharan caravans in West Africa. Although Taourirt was the main residence of the Glaoui, it did not house the chief chiefs there. Instead, it housed the second level of command, namely the children, servants, cousins, builders and craftsmen of the dynasty.
  4. Dades Gorges
    15m
    The Dades Valley is a small but spectacular version of the Grand Canyon! Its steep walls and fantastic geological rock formations add to its uniqueness and splendor, especially when the sun shines and the sky is light blue.
    The region is known for its strangely shaped mountains known locally as the fingers of the monkeys.
