This is the land of the fiercely independent Berbers, whose traditions and ways still dominate in their mountain strongholds far away from the cities below. The Berbers present a unique view of a way of life, heritage, music, dance and language that's been lost to the rest of North Africa.

The mud and straw structures become more plentiful and more ornate as you progress along the valleys to reach the marvellous Dades Valley and then the beautiful Valley of Roses, famous for its beautiful rose gardens and adobe villages.

Lastly, you'll reach Ouarzazate which is known as ‘the door of the desert’ and the 'Berber Hollywood’.

It was one of the important fortress strongholds on the old Salt Road Caravan Routes where traders brought slaves, gold, ivory and salt from sub-Saharan Africa to Marrakech and beyond. This experience is something memorable for many visitors.

The drive will continue through the High Atlas Mountains via Tizi N’ Tichka, the highest mountain pass in Morocco at 2260 metres.

Tour Leader
An experienced person tasked with ensuring the smooth operation of tours, as well as providing practical support to passengers throughout the whole trip. Their role primarily includes assisting with accommodation, transportation between locations, and communication with tour guides at each stop. A tour leader may provide general guidance around a city or village and offer information on the place visited on the bus. However, they are not required to have specific art, architecture, or historical knowledge. They are not allowed to provide a guided tour or commentary of a city/village/attraction once there and, if caught doing so, can be fined. 

Please note: Tour leaders/guides are not a standard inclusion in all travel offers. Tour leaders/guides will only be made available when required to enhance the experience of the destination featured.
