In this spectacular setting, renowned films such as Gladiator, The Jewel of the Nile, Sahara, and Lunch in the Village have been filmed. We will then continue our journey to Ouarzazate, considered the gateway to the desert, the starting point for major expeditions and home to the impressive Kasbah of Taourirt. From there, we will proceed to the Valley of Roses, passing through the vast palm groves of Skoura and Boumalne, before arriving in the Dades Valley. Accommodation will be in a hotel/riad.
After breakfast, we'll travel to Merzouga. We'll ascend a path to a strategic mountain viewpoint overlooking the gorges, then continue along a road dotted with beautiful Kasbahs, each one unique. After several stops, we'll arrive at one of the highlights of southern Spain: the Todra Gorge. At 300 meters high, the Todra River has carved a stunning canyon with towering vertical walls, 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 a traditional tea and a short rest. Overnight stay at a hotel.
It's recommended to get up early to see the sunrise from the top of the great dune. After breakfast, another day exploring the desert area, visiting the Merzouga Oasis, the village of the Blacks, nomads in their traditional tents, and the village and oasis of Tissardmine. In the afternoon, we'll trade our 4x4s for 8x8 camels. Mounted on the camels, we'll cross the dunes to reach a secluded tented camp in the heart of the desert. Enjoy a starry night accompanied by the silence of the desert, and a drumming party in the tents.
We'll wake up early to watch the sunrise from atop a large dune, then return to the hotel for a shower and breakfast. Once ready, we'll depart north towards Fez, with a planned stop in Midelt for lunch. We'll continue through the Ziz Valley and the Middle Atlas Mountains, stopping in Azrou where we can admire the Great Gouraud Cedar, the largest and oldest cedar in the region, and feed the hundreds of Barbary macaques that inhabit the area. Then we'll continue our journey to Ifrane, a beautiful town known as "the Switzerland of Morocco." We'll stop to take a picture of the Stone Lion, located just a few meters from the town's streets. It was carved by a German soldier during World War II in honor of the last lion of the Atlas Mountains. We'll arrive in Fez in the afternoon and stay overnight in a riad.
After picking you up from your hotel early in the morning, we'll head north to the Rif region, where Chefchaouen, our destination, is located. Once in Chefchaouen (also known as Xaouen or Chaouen), you'll have free time to explore the city at your leisure. Within the medina, don't miss Uta el-Hammam Square (the heart of the city and the perfect place for lunch), the Grand Mosque (with its striking octagonal tower), and the Kasbah (which houses a garden, a museum, and an art gallery). We'll return to Fez in the afternoon. We can bring the return trip forward so you can enjoy Fez. Overnight in a Riad.
