We will visit an Argan cooperative, where we will discover the production process and learn about its numerous health benefits.

We will continue our journey to the village of Ait Ben Haddou (a UNESCO World Heritage Site). This spectacular setting has been the filming location for renowned movies such as Gladiator, The Jewel of the Nile, and Sahara.

Lunch will be in the village, and we will continue our journey towards Ouarzazate, the gateway to the desert. We will then proceed to the Valley of Roses, passing through the Skoura Palm Grove and arriving at the Dades Valley.

Dades Valley - Todra Gorge - Merzouga Dunes (Desert)

The Todra River has carved a gorge with towering, vertical walls of immense beauty, a paradise for climbers and a truly unique place. We'll have lunch there and then continue into the desert to reach the impressive Merzouga Dunes, where we'll enjoy an evening tea while we rest. We'll leave our luggage at the guesthouse and depart in a camel caravan, which will take us to the Berber tent camp in about an hour.

We'll stop along the way to watch the sunset over the dunes and stretch our legs before continuing to the camp. Before dinner, we'll have the opportunity to climb the dunes near the camp and enjoy some tea, taking in the peace and quiet. We'll spend the night in a traditional Berber tent under the stars.(An unforgettable night).
