Embark on a spectacular 9-days expedition through Morocco’s stunning and contrasting regions — from the vibrant city of Marrakech to the silent beauty of the Sahara and the dramatic heights of the High Atlas Mountains.
Your journey begins with a scenic drive through the Tizi n’Tichka pass and the lush Ounila Valley before arriving in the iconic ksar of Aït Benhaddou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Continue to Ouarzazate, the “Hollywood of Africa,” and explore the dramatic landscapes of the Dadès Gorges and Jbel Saghro, where you’ll meet local nomads and discover hidden valleys.
Venture deep into the desert, crossing remote villages and wild dunes until you reach the untouched beauty of Erg Zhar, where you’ll spend a magical night in a nomadic bivouac under a sky full of stars. The journey then continues through the Iriki salt flats and the artisan town of Taznakht before reaching Tisldaye in the Anti-Atlas.
Finally, head north into the heart of the High Atlas for a mountain trekking experience in the Imlil region, culminating in the optional ascent of Mount Toubkal — the highest peak in North Africa (4,167m). Throughout the trip, enjoy rich cultural exchanges, scenic drives, traditional Moroccan hospitality, and a true taste of adventure.
