WHY OUARZAZATE CITY
Day Trip To Ouarzazte
Enjoy a memorable day trip from Marrakech into the breathtaking High Atlas Mountains, where winding roads and panoramic views lead you across the picturesque Tizi n'Tichka Pass, one of Morocco's highest and most dramatic mountain passes. Along the way, take in traditional Berber villages clinging to hillside, green valleys, and the constantly changing colors of the Atlas peaks, making the journey as interesting as the destinations themselves.
Your tour continues with a visit to the world-famous Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, an excellent example of southern Moroccan architecture and a proud UNESCO World Heritage site. The ancient fortified village, constructed from earthen clay walls and towers, has been remarkably well-preserved and offers a step back in time to the days of desert caravans. Apart from its cultural significance, Ait Ben Haddou has gained worldwide fame as a filming location for many foreign films and television programs, thus a pilgrimage site for history enthusiasts and movie buffs as well.
Then head to Ouarzazate, also known as the "Hollywood of Morocco," for its internationally renowned film studios and cinematic landscapes that have hosted iconic films. Explore its kasbahs, or fortified cities, like the famous Taourirt Kasbah, which reflects the area's rich history and traditional Berber architecture. The mix of culture, history, and cinema makes the city one of Morocco's most fascinating destinations.
This full-day excursion offers a perfect blend of nature, culture, and film legend. From the towering mountains of the High Atlas to the charm of Berber villages, the ancient ramparts of Ait Ben Haddou, and the film magic of Ouarzazate, this excursion will be one to remember. At the end of the day, return comfortably to Marrakech, carrying with you the photos, sounds, and stories of Morocco's most renowned monuments
