What to Expect
On this tour we will pass the High Atlas Region, covering the Tizi-n-Tichka pass and the World Heritage Site of Ait Benhaddou. We will travel through Ouarzazate, Agdz and the Valley of Draa, passing many traditional villages and mingling with the locals as we pass by. There will be plenty of photo opportunities as we follow the Draa River to Tagounite and into the sand dunes of Erg Lihoudi. We will spend time in the desert before arriving at M’Hamid and the festival, where we will have a few days to enjoy the activities. On the way back, we will travel through the largest dunes in Morocco, the Chegaga Dunes, again taking some time out in the desert to relax and unwind, watching the colours of shapes of the Sahara and undoubtedly capturing their beauty. We will then pass through rocky deserts and again lush valleys on our way back towards Marrakech, as well as the dry like of Iriqui and the village of Foum Zguid and stopping over for the night again in Ouarzazate.
