Stop At: Jemaa el-Fnaa, Marrakech Morocco
Marrakech - Ait Ben Haddou - Ouarzazate - Skoura - The Valley Of Roses - Dades Gorges
After breakfast at your accommodation, our appointment will be at 7am to proceed to Ouarzazate. Our first stop will be at Tichka to take some memorable photos of the amazing scenery. Then we will visit the Kasbah of Ait Benhaddou, a Palace of Pasha Glaoui, or the lord of the Atlas. UNESCO classifies this Kasbah as a World Heritage in 1987. The Kasbah was used as a backdrop for more than 20 films, including "Gladiator," "Indiana Jones" and "Lawrence of Arabia". Then we will take a walk to discover the Moroccan traditional architecture of the Kasbahs. On top of the hill, we will uncover the earth-coloured erections surrounded by high walls. They served as a palace of the Pasha where he used to host many of his 20th century V.I.P. friends such as George Orwell. Then, we will drive to the film studios and the Kasbah of Taourirte in Ouarzazate. After lunch, we will continue towards Skoura. Along the way, we will stop to take pictures in the palm groves then continue to the Rose Valley where we will visit the cooperative roses. Then we will drive to Dades Gorge. These gorges are located between the High Atlas and Jbel Saghro and considered as on the best sites of mountain climbers. Dades is a long river 200 km, half of which is located in mountainous areas. Along its course, four sets of grooves parades are repeated. Their depth ranges from 200 to 500 m. Overnight in the hotel in the gorges.

Once arrived at the throats of the cliff we will have a walk under the 300m high red rock face. Many climbers come to practice their favourite sport. Then we will continue to Erfoud and Rissani where we will have lunch before arriving in Merzouga. Our kind camel man will welcome us with a glass of mint tea and a scarf trick to protect ourselves from the hot sun of the desert. Then he will lead us to the mysterious sea of sand of Erg Chebbi. His friend camels will carry us on their back following their blue human friend. This night will be mesmerising.
