Highlights
  • Tifnit - Departure at 08:30 south direction, after a good hour drive (40km), stop at the fishing village Tifnit, unique panorama …. troglodyte houses, blue boats, beautiful beach on a wild coast. A short walk … to see the arrival of small traditional fishing boats, assist with unloading, and the sale of fish on site.

The visit of Tifnit also offers the possibility of exploring the Souss Massa National Park; this nature reserve which is home to endangered birds like the bald ibis. It is also the privileged place of many species of migratory birds ….. Oued massa (river) … !! Often called the Nile of the Sous, which generously offers this natural beauty, this greenery in the middle of a desert landscape

  • Massa - Cape sand dunes in the middle of a stony desert, small villages, some nomad tents, shepherds with their flock of goats or sheep appear to us during our journey ……. arrival near the dunes of sands, stop and photos at will …. or just a small ride on the camel on one of the largest dunes is often deserved
  • Tiznit - After lunch we continue our way to the desert gate: Tiznit; a small town surrounded by ramparts, well known for its silver filigree jewelry … visit the medina, and its narrow streets, the souk (shopping at the request of customers), and the large square Almechouar.

super - The guys are great. We used them for all our trips a few weeks ago - croco park, horse riding, a trip out to the dessert for a night to stay with Berber tribes, the local souk and an airport trip early in the morning. The two Mohameds were very informative and entertaining people. The transport was always reliable and safe. I would highly recommend them.
