Todra Gorge & Dades Valley (10 hours)
Starting from Ouarzazate, we will embark on the Road of 1,000 Kasbahs, a picturesque passage through Morocco's interior, including a visit to the Oasis of Skoura. The journey continues into the M'Goun Valley, known for its scenic vistas that feature small villages and extensive fields of rosebushes.
Our travels lead us to the Dades Valley, a prominent gorge within the High Atlas mountains. After absorbing the stunning landscapes, we will head to the Todra Gorge, where you can marvel at the canyon walls soaring over 980 feet (300 meters).
There will be a break for lunch in the vicinity, followed by our return to Ouarzazate, with an additional stop at the Kasbah Amridil, a historic fortress dating back to the 17th century located in Skoura.
Schedule: available daily at 8:30 am
Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou (6 hours)
From Ouarzazate, we will travel north toward the Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, an incredible desert citadel recognized as a World Heritage Site.
During a guided exploration of the kasbah, you’ll discover its cinematic significance, having served as a backdrop for various episodes of Game of Thrones. It has also been the setting for well-known films such as Gladiator, The Mummy, and Lawrence of Arabia!
Following our visit, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a meal at a restaurant adjacent to the kasbah. On our way back to Ouarzazate, we will pass through the stunning Ounilla Valley and catch a glimpse of the Tourirt Kasbah from the outside.

After picking you up from your accommodation in Ouarzazate, we will start our adventure at the town's Cinema Museum to explore its rich cinematic heritage. Numerous films and series filmed in this region have utilized the studios neighboring the Kasbah Taourirt, our next destination.
We will then proceed to embark on a 30-minute journey through the desert towards the Fint Oasis, a stunning enclave surrounded by desert. Here, date palms flourish along the banks of a river, creating a verdant landscape amid arid surroundings.
Finally, you will have an hour to leisurely dine in the area before we return to Ouarzazate.
