Overview

Ouarzazate, capital of the Great Moroccan South, has a national and international airport.

Only 180 km south of Marrakech, you will find in your full day tour that Ouarzazate is the center of a region rich in Kasbah, valleys, gorges, dunes, palm groves, rose gardens, oases ... famous throughout the world.

From horseback riding to camel caravans, from Quad biking to Buggy in the dunes to Sand Surfing, from Rafting to climbing the gorges, from strolling in the Souks and Kasbah to visits to the Film Studios, the City is full of activities and breathtaking landscapes.

Located at the gates of the Moroccan desert, Ouarzazate is the ideal starting point for a Bivouac in the desert: A night under the stars! A unique experience.

What to expect

  1. Ait Ben Haddou
    Pass by
    Aït Benhaddou is an ighrem (fortified village in English) along the former caravan route between the Sahara and Marrakech in present-day Morocco. Most citizens attracted by the tourist trade live in more modern dwellings in a village on the other side of the river, although there are four families still living in the ancient village. Inside the walls of the ksar are half a dozen kasbahs, or merchants' houses. Ksar Aït Benhaddou is a great example of Moroccan earthen clay architecture and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987.
  2. Pass by
    Telouet Kasbah‎; French: Casbah de Télouet) is a Kasbah along the former route of the caravans from the Sahara over the Atlas Mountains to Marrakech. The kasbah was the seat of the El Glaoui family's power, thus sometimes also called the Palace of Glaoui, and it was built in the 18th and 19th centuries. The palace can still be visited but it is steadily becoming more damaged and is slowly collapsing. In 2010, work was underway to restore the property.
  3. Pass by
    Tizi n'Tichka, romanized: Tizi en Ticka; Arabic: تيزي ن تيشكا‎) is a mountain pass in Morocco, linking the south-east of Marrakesh to the city of Ouarzazat through the High Atlas mountains. It lies above the great Marrakesh plains, and is a gateway to the Sahara Desert.
