You'll also have a chance to wander through the picturesque villages and see the crops on the Atlas hills. The next stop is the Ait ben Haddou Kasbah, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
After lunch, you'll continue on to Ouarzazate, nicknamed the "Hollywood of Africa", for its stunning geography and history of attracting movie producers. You have the option to visit the film studios, showcasing props from famous movies such as The Mummy, Gladiator, and The Last Temptation of Christ. Lastly, you'll visit the Taourirt Kasbah, belonging to the former governor of Ouarzazate, the Glaoui family, before checking into your riad or hotel.

After breakfast, we'll head to Toudra Gorges via the Skoura palm grove. On the way, we'll pass through the Roses Valley and visit the Dades Valley before continuing to Tinghir, a recently revitalized town at the base of the Anti Atlas Mountains.

In the morning, we will embark on a tour of the city's most prominent monuments and historical sites, including the Bouaananiya Medersa and the Karaouiyine University, which is renowned as the oldest Arabic university in the world.
