Itinerary

Day 1:Marrakech – Ait Ben Haddou – Ouarzazate – Agdz – Zagora Desert

Your adventure begins with an early morning pickup from your hotel, riad, or airport in Marrakech. Leave the Red City behind as you travel across the spectacular High Atlas Mountains via the famous Tizi n’Tichka Pass, the highest mountain pass in Morocco. Along the way, enjoy breathtaking panoramic views, traditional Berber villages, and scenic photo stops.

Continue to the UNESCO-listed Ait Ben Haddou, Morocco’s most famous fortified village. Wander through its ancient mud-brick streets, admire its historic kasbahs, and learn about its importance as a former caravan trading center and filming location for numerous international movies and television productions.

After lunch, travel through Ouarzazate before crossing the Anti-Atlas Mountains toward the magnificent Draa Valley. This scenic region is home to thousands of date palms, ancient ksour, and traditional Berber villages stretching along Morocco’s longest river.

Arrive in Zagora during the late afternoon, where your camel trek begins. Ride across the peaceful desert dunes as the sun sets before reaching your traditional desert camp. Enjoy a delicious Moroccan dinner followed by Berber music, storytelling around the campfire, and a magical night beneath the Sahara stars.

Day 2:Zagora Desert – Ouarzazate – High Atlas Mountains – Marrakech

Wake early to witness a spectacular sunrise over the Zagora Desert before enjoying breakfast at the camp. Return by camel to meet your driver and begin the scenic journey back toward Marrakech.

Travel once again through the beautiful Draa Valley before arriving in Ouarzazate, often called the Gateway to the Sahara. If time permits, visit the historic Taourirt Kasbah or admire the famous Atlas Film Studios, where many internationally acclaimed movies have been produced.
