Tours from Ouarzazate

Ouarzazate has an airport, and starting here saves you the High Atlas crossing on day one: you head straight for the desert. On the way, a film studio in Ouarzazate, the Skoura oasis with the Amridil kasbah, the Dades Valley and the Todra Gorge. The 4-day tour starts instead with the Ait Ben Haddou kasbah, a World Heritage Site, and spends the night in the Dades.

• 2 days to Fes: Skoura, the Dades, the Todra, a night in the desert and, next day, Rissani, the Ziz Valley and the Middle Atlas to Fes.
• 3 days to Fes: the same route, with two nights in the desert and a day in the Sahara by 4x4.
• 3 days to Marrakech: two nights in the desert, then back via N’Kob and the palm groves of the Draa Valley, over the High Atlas to Marrakech.
• 4 days to Marrakech: Ait Ben Haddou and a night in the Dades, the Todra, two nights in the desert and the Draa Valley to Marrakech.
