Day 1: Marrakech - Telouet - Ait Ben Haddou - Dades GorgesMorning departure from your hotel or Riad in Marrakech to Dades Gorges, passing throughout the mountain roads above Morocco (2260m), the Tizi N Tichka. Stops are planned during the whole journey to take photos of the amazing overviews. Continuing the road to Telouet, visit the Kasbah Glaoui (sometimes called Glaoui palace; this was built between the nineteenth and twentieth century. Then passing through the Ounila valley to Ait Ben Haddou. This valley was used as a crossing road by the caravans between Marrakech and Ouarzazate. Throughout the valley, there is a striking contrast between the ocher of the earth and rocks and the green planting, for those who take the time to observe. Visit Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, one of the most famous kasbah of southern Morocco, now classified as a world heritage by Unesco. This fortified city was built a few hundred years on a promontory, to escape the invasions of foreign tribes. If you climb up to the attic of the ruins you can admire the view of the palms and the desert surroundings. To this day, only few families still live there. After lunch, we resumpt the road towards to Dades Gorges, crossing Ouarzazate; the Hollywood of Morocco and the Roses Valley.

Beware of this SCAM. Driver, while pleasant, stopped at every cultural center where a Berber carpet going to be sold - all friends of his. This went on for three days. The overnight in the desert is not the "roughing it" experience we wanted, and were charged for water to drink! Save your money!
