Trip Details: 1 Day Trip from Marrakech to Ouarzazate & Ait Ben Haddou

Kick off an action-packed day trip from Marrakech at sunrise! We’ll conquer the High Atlas Mountains, climbing the winding Tizi N’tichka Pass to over 2,200 meters for epic photos of remote Berber villages.

First stop: the legendary Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou. You’ll recognize this UNESCO fortress from Game of Thrones! Follow your guide to uncover the secrets of this ancient citadel. Next, we push on to Ouarzazate, “Africa’s Hollywood,” to dive into the maze-like Taourirt Kasbah. Film buffs can add an optional tour of the Atlas Studios.

As the sun sets, we’ll hit the road for a stunning drive back through the mountains, getting you back to your Marrakech hotel in the evening after a full day of cinematic adventure.
