An original itinerary that takes you through the High Atlas and its 2 highest passes, but also lets you experience the magic of the desert and explore the Drâa Valley and the Dades and Todra Canyons. It’s a tour for road warriors and those who want to enjoy as much of the landscape as possible in just 5 days.
Ait Ben Haddou
After your transfer to the hotel, this first day is devoted to acclimatisation, administrative formalities and a general briefing on the tour. The earlier you arrive in Marrakech, the more time you will have to explore Jemaa El Fena square and its lively streets. Welcome dinner.
After a hearty breakfast at the hotel, you will be transferred to our departure base. Head due south towards the Tiz’nTest pass. We’re plunged straight into the High Atlas. An extraordinary route, but a region that bore the full brunt of the earthquake of 8 September 2023. After lunch with breathtaking views, we reach Taroudant after an epic descent of the pass
A fantastic day where we leave behind the fertile plains of the Souss to tackle the Anti Atlas passes and reach the first desert landscapes.
A transition stage heading due East for total immersion in the desert. An epic day, with every bend bringing you closer to the Sahara, revealing a landscape in constant metamorphosis, between desert valleys dotted with acacia trees and majestic dunes. Let the magic of the desert work
The dunes of Merzouga give way to the oases of Tinejdad and the vertiginous Todra and Dades gorges. A beautiful stage where the majesty of the desert gives way to the splendour of the canyons. Southern Morocco in all its glory.
We set off early in the morning along the Valley of the Roses to Ouarzazate and Ait Ben Haddou, where we spend some time exploring this UNESCO World Heritage Site, known as the setting for several major Hollywood productions. We continue the return crossing of the High Atlas to reach the Kasbah of Telouet for a lunch break before tackling the Tichka, the highest tarmac road in Morocco (2260m), and arriving in Marrakech in the late afternoon.
Breakfast at the hotel. Free time before your transfer to the airport.
