Your 2 day Morocco itinerary begins early with a pick-up from your riad, hotel, or Marrakech airport. First, we cross the majestic High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi N’Tichka pass, reaching 2,260 meters above sea level. Along the way, we pause at several scenic viewpoints to admire the lush valleys and Berber villages nestled in the hills.
Then, we continue toward the legendary Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its appearance in blockbuster films like Gladiator and Game of Thrones. After exploring the kasbah on foot, we break for lunch either nearby or further in Ouarzazate, also known as the “Hollywood of Africa.”
Next, we drive through the Anti-Atlas Mountains, passing traditional Berber villages and following the verdant Draa Valley—the longest river in Morocco and home to endless palm groves. By late afternoon, we arrive in the Zagora Sahara desert, where a camel trek awaits. After that, enjoy the stunning desert sunset before reaching your Zagora desert camp. There, savor a traditional Moroccan dinner followed by lively drumming and dancing under the stars.
After a peaceful night under the starry skies of the Sahara, your day begins with an early camel ride to witness the desert sunrise—a serene moment you’ll never forget. Following a warm Moroccan breakfast, we begin our journey back to Marrakech.
En route, we stop once again in Ouarzazate, where you’ll visit the historic Taourirt Kasbah and optionally explore the Atlas Film Studios, famous for hosting international film productions. Then, we continue our drive across the High Atlas Mountains via Tizi N’Tichka pass, where you’ll have more opportunities to admire the stunning scenery.
Finally, we arrive back in Marrakech in the late afternoon, where you’ll be dropped off at your hotel, riad, or the airport.
