Descriptions

8 Days tour from Marrakech, would begin in Marrakech and take you through the magnificent High Atlas Mountains through the well-known Tizi-n-Tichka crossing.
We see your first views of the southeast while traveling; it appears to be a completely different country. Samples of this can be seen at the well-known Kasbah of Telouet and the Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou, which is a UNESCO-listed World Heritage Site. You will be taken aback by the film sets in Ouarzazate at the biggest African studio, the Atlas studio, a lot of which are from well-known Hollywood blockbusters.
The Skoura Oasis, which has a tiny museum of Kasbah Amredhil (formerly seen on the fifty dirham banknote), exhibits much more variances. The only location where the Damascene roses grow is in Kel’aa M’gounal.

Following the last Pasha passed away in 1956, every extension towards the palace was deserted and looted, and today every one lies in ruins open to the rain and the wind. Wait until you get to the other end of the Kasbah to be impressed with the authentic internal décor. After this, you traverse the breathtaking Ounila Valley, which is dotted with tiny Kasbahs, Berber communities, flowers, and unexpectedly varied rock and soil colors. We arrive at Ait Ben Haddou, which is nearly just at end of the journey, and pause for a filling lunch so that you can explore this UNESCO World Heritage Site that has served as the setting for several Blockbuster movies.
