A scenic drive through Morocco
Settle in for a 4-hour journey from Marrakech, where the rolling Moroccan landscape unfolds before you. Travel in comfort in an air-conditioned vehicle with WiFi, guided by an expert sharing stories and insights along the way. Pass traditional Berber villages tucked into the hillsides, with views of rugged peaks and green valleys. Pause in the quaint village of Ben Barka near Toufliht to stretch your legs and soak in the peaceful vibe before ascending to the Tizi n'Tichka pass. Here, at 7,415 feet, you’ll witness the stunning snow-capped Atlas Mountains rising in contrast to Morocco's desert expanses, capturing the grandeur of this unique landscape.
Explore Ouarzazate and ancient Ait Benhaddou
Your adventure continues to Ouarzazate, the “Hollywood of Morocco,” home to the renowned Atlas Film Studios. Known for scenes in Game of Thrones and Gladiator, this studio offers a behind-the-scenes look at iconic cinematic backdrops. Enjoy some time to wander and snap photos before relishing a delicious Moroccan meal at a local restaurant (at your own expense). Finally, you’ll arrive at the UNESCO-listed Kasbah Ait Benhaddou, a mesmerizing 11th-century fortress made of ancient earthen clay, fortified with towering red pisé walls. This desert marvel, frozen in time, is a perfect photo stop to capture memories of Morocco’s architectural heritage. As the day comes to a close and you embark on your journey back to the city, admire the stunning sight of the sun setting over the Berber deserts.
