This journey involves a spectacular opportunity to see a great deal of Morocco all within one full day. It is the ideal trip for those who do not wish to spend a few nights sleeping out in the desertand want to be back in Marrakech for an evening eating out.

The day begins early as we will be leaving Marrakech before 8.00 am and our drive will then take us across the High Atlas Mountains. The rugged beauty and height of these peaks will have you glued to the window in our minibus as we snake through the mountain roads.

There are several small Berber villages along the route and we will get a chance to stop a take some photographs of the elevated scenery before making our way to the Kasbah at Ait Ben Haddou. It will be another couple of hours before we reach here but the scenery will remain stunning throughout.

The Kasbah at Ait Ben Haddou is a fortified village which holds about half a dozen market areas and merchant houses. Our tour around this old building will be guided. Like Ouarzazate – which will be the next stop on this tour – Ait Ben Haddou is a very popular location for Hollywood film crews and production companies.

You will see exactly why it makes a great setting for a number of films set in biblical times, ancient Arabic legend or movies set thousands of year ago. Sodom and Gomorrah (1963), The Man Who Would Be King (1975) and The Jewel of the Nile (1985) all made use of the ancient fortified village here at Ait Ben Haddou.

Our day of adventure then moves onto Ouarzazate, where we’ll tour around this city and see the film studios. Ouarzazate is a much-loved location by film production, many of whom specifically come here because of the ancient buildings, golden landscapes and stunning scenery. One feels as though you have taken a trip back in time as you explore the ancient Kasbahs, golden clay buildings and don’t be surprised to see a Hollywood film crew shooting a movie here.

Some of the blockbuster movies shot in this location include the Bond classic Living Daylights (1987), Lawrence of Arabia (1962) and The Last Temptation of Christ (1988).

Camel Trekking

Camel Trekking

Imagine yourself on top a camel, trekking through the Sahara Desert. There is nothing around you and all you can hear are the footsteps of the camel on the soft sand. The sky is vast and clear in the day and filled with millions of bright stars at night... very peaceful experience and a journey well worth the effort in which you will have fond memories to last you forever. Visit kasbahs, see orange sand dunes, lush fertile oases, and serrated mountain summits fill the vistas. With the grand solitude and silence of the Sahara, and nights spent under nomadic tents, you'll feel the mysterious power that the desert has always had over the human soul.

The dunes of Erg Chebbi near Merzouga is 30 miles (50km) south east of Erfoud and has the highest and most spectacular sand dunes in Morocco. These golden dunes are 50 meters high from the desert floor. They run in a line almost perfectly north-south direction to the village of Merzouga and beyond, and mark the western fringe of the Sahara Desert, dividing Morocco from Algeria...

This ocean of pure Saharan sand, provides the back drop to an authentic Arabian adventure which involves a camel trek across the dunes to a secluded oasis, where an authentic spicy Berber tagine is being prepared over an open fire by Bedouin tents.

We'll have a chance to explore this magnificent desert landscape - if you're feeling energetic you can climb the dunes for sunrise or sunset to watch the light and color of the sands change. As the stars come out you can often hear the rhythmic beat of tribal drumming carried on the still night.

Camel trekking may not be the most comfortable means of traveling for some, but it is undoubtedly a 'must' for every traveler as a way to experience the mode of transport of the Berber nomads of the Sahara. Everyone has a fantasy to be Lawrence of Arabia for a short part of their life and this is an ideal opportunity to fulfill that dream.

Mohamed and his team offer true camel trek with all the magic of the Sahara. Visit some of the most beautiful, spectacular and dramatic scenery in the world.
