Itinerary

Day 1: High Atlas mountains & fortified village of Ait Ben Haddou

Stop At: Ait Ben Haddou, Ait Ben Haddou, Souss-Massa
The 3-day tour starts from Marrakech in the direction of Ouarzazate. You get driven throughout the slopes of Atlas Mountains known as “Tizi-n-Tishka” which is regarded as one of the most twisted roads in the world. The pass stands at an elevation of 2,260m.a.s.l and has wonderful views, mountain streams, oaks, walnut trees etc. all along the way, the Berber villages and fields are terraced to the sides of the road. In winter, the pass is likely to be covered with snow. You proceed down to the Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a distinctive location for moviemakers. Several foreign and local movies have been shot in the Kasbah, to name a few: Lawrence of Arabia, Gladiator, The Mummy etc. Once you get to Ait Ben Haddou, you get to leisurely stroll down though the walls of the Kasbah and have lunch before you continue driving to Ourzazate, the Hollywood of Africa, and then on to Boumalne Dades where the first day of the trip terminates. The road to the town is called the route of the thousand Kasbahs due to the tremendous number of fortresses and citadels spread in the region. Indeed, Dades (the main gateway to the Dades valley) remains a marvelous and cool town.
