Itinerary

Day 1: Marrakech – Ait Ben Haddou – Draa Valley – Zagora

We start our 2 Days Tour from Marrakech to Zagora with an early pickup from your accommodation in Marrakech. The journey begins with a scenic drive through the majestic High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi n’Tichka Pass (2,260 m), one of the highest in North Africa. You’ll be treated to breathtaking views of mountain landscapes and Berber villages clinging to hillsides.

Our first major stop is at the UNESCO World Heritage site of Ait Ben Haddou, an ancient ksar (fortified village) famous for its earthen clay architecture and its role in films like Gladiator and Game of Thrones. You’ll have time to explore the kasbah and snap photos from its panoramic viewpoints.

We continue driving past Ouarzazate (known as the Hollywood of Africa) and head south through the beautiful Draa Valley, the longest valley in Morocco, filled with lush palm groves, kasbahs, and traditional Berber villages.

By late afternoon, we arrive in Zagora, the gateway to the Sahara Desert. Here, your camel trek begins! Ride through the tranquil dunes and witness a stunning sunset before arriving at your desert camp.

In the evening, enjoy a traditional Moroccan dinner, live Berber music, and stargazing around the campfire. Spend the night in a well-equipped tent for a peaceful Sahara experience.

Day 2: Zagora – Agdz – Ouarzazate – Marrakech

Wake up early to admire the breathtaking desert sunrise. After breakfast and a camel ride back to the starting point, we begin the return journey to Marrakech.

We travel back through the Draa Valley and stop for breaks in charming villages like Agdz, where you can enjoy the view of the valley from above.

We also pass again through Ouarzazate, where you’ll have the chance to visit the famous Taourirt Kasbah or one of the local film studios if time allows.

Finally, we cross the High Atlas Mountains once more, stopping for scenic photos along the way. Your 2 Days Tour from Marrakech to Zagora ends with drop-off at your hotel or riad in Marrakech by the evening.
