Ait Ben Haddou
The site of the ksar has been fortified since the 11th century during the Almoravid period.[2][3] None of the current buildings are believed to date from before the 17th century, but they were likely built with the same construction methods and designs as had been used for centuries before.[1] The site's strategic importance was due to its location in the Ounila Valley along one of the main trans-Saharan trade routes.[1] The Tizi n'Tichka pass, which was reached via this route, was one of the few routes across the Atlas Mountains, crossing between Marrakech and the Dra'a Valley on the edge of the Sahara.[3][1] Other kasbahs and ksour were located all along this route, such as the nearby Tamdaght to the north.[2] Today, the ksar itself is only sparsely inhabited by several families.[3] The depopulation over time is a result of the valley's loss of strategic importance in the 20th century.
Ouarzazate
Ouarzazate is a city south of Morocco’s High Atlas mountains, known as a gateway to the Sahara Desert. Its huge Taourirt Kasbah, home to a 19th-century palace, has views over the rugged local landscape, which features in several movies. Northwest is the fortified red-earth city of Aït Ben Haddou. Northeast is the rocky Todra Gorge. A road winds southeast through the Draa Valley’s lush palm groves to the desert

The Todgha Gorges (Berber languages: ⵜⵉⵣⵉ ⵏ ⵜⵓⴷⵖⴰ; Arabic: مضيق تودغا) are a series of limestone river canyons, or wadi, in the eastern part of the High Atlas Mountains in Morocco, near the town of Tinerhir.[1] Both the Todgha and neighbouring Dades Rivers are responsible for carving out these deep cliff-sided canyons, on their final 40 kilometres (25 mi) through the mountains. The height of the canyon walls can vary, but in some places can be up to 400 metres (1,312 ft) high

Erg Chebbi
In places, the dunes of Erg Chebbi rise up to 150 meters from the surrounding hamada (rocky desert) and altogether it spans an area of 28 kilometers from north to south and up to 5–7 kilometers from east to west lining the Algerian border.[1] The nearest sizable town is Erfoud, about 60 kilometers further north. One other city is Rissani, around 40 kilometers from Merzouga. Rissani was the site of a kingdom known as Sijilmassa, which became prosperous from the 8th to the 14th century due to its control of the caravan routes. Although rainfall is not very common,[2] in 2006 flooding adjacent to the dunes destroyed many buildings and killed three people.
Musica De Gnawa, Khamlia
Khamlia is a small village located on the edge of sand dunes of Erg Chebbi in southeast Morocco near the Algerian border. The village is also called the southern gateway to the Sahara, which begins in Algeria. About 7 km from Khamlia is the larger village of Merzouga

5.00How can you put into words the magic that is The Sahara Desert? From the camel ride at Sunset, to the Sunrise in the stillness of the sand dunes…. And all that we discovered in the towns before and after. Our driver, guardian angel and brother, Younes made it all that much more special. I highly recommend Younes as a trusted driver and friend. Ask for him if you can ☀️🙏
Incredible 4-day desert tour in Morocco

5.00We just returned from an incredible 4-day desert tour in Morocco, and we can't recommend it enough! Our driver was absolutely excellent and professional. He not only ensured our safety but also took the time to ask about our interests and preferences for stops along the way. His insights into Berber culture were fascinating and added so much depth to our experience. The landscapes in southern Morocco were breathtakingly varied - every hour seemed to bring a new and stunning vista. Yes, it was hot in August, but thankfully our car was equipped with AC, and all the hotels we stayed at were comfortable. The desert camp, understandably without AC, was actually a blessing in disguise - it added to the authenticity of the experience. We wouldn't have wanted it any other way! Overall, this tour was an unforgettable adventure, and we're so grateful to have had such a knowledgeable and considerate guide. Highly recommended!

5.00Unforgettable! Our 4-day adventure from Marrakech to Fes through the Merzouga Desert was absolutely breathtaking. From the beginning, our guide was attentive and knowledgeable about the region, sharing stories and anecdotes that enriched our experience. The desert landscape, Erg Chebbi dunes and sunset at the luxury camp in Merzouga left us breathless. The night under the stars was magical. The local food and tea were delicious, and the hospitality of our hosts was warm and genuine. The city of Fes, with its medina and the oldest university in the world, was the perfect snap for our trip. We recommend this private tour to anyone looking for an authentic and exciting experience in Morocco. Thank you to our guides and organizers for making this trip an unforgettable experience!"

We felt very comfortable with him, and it was clear that he was knowledgeable and passionate about the region. The tour itself was perfectly planned, with breathtaking changes in landscape that kept us in awe. The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly the night spent in the Erg Chebbi dunes of Merzouga, where we witnessed a stunning sunset and enjoyed the tranquility of the desert under the stars. We highly recommend this tour and Karime as your driver and guide - you won't be disappointed

5.00We have just completed a 4 days and 3 nights tour from Marrakech to Fes via the Merzouga desert, and we are absolutely delighted! Everything was perfect, from impeccable organization to breathtaking scenery. Our driver, Hamid, was really friendly and professional. He made our trip even more enjoyable with his smile and knowledge. But the highlight of our trip was the night in the desert. The camel ride at sunset was magical, and the night at the camp under the stars was simply exceptional. We will always remember this unique and unforgettable experience. We highly recommend this tour to all those who wish to discover the beauty of Morocco and live an unforgettable adventure.
