Ksar of Ait-Ben-Haddou - At midday, you’ll arrive at the famous fortified city of Ait Benhaddou - the former caravan route between the Sahara and Marrakech in present-day Morocco. Travel back in time with your local official guide taking you around the kasbah.
The Ksar of Aït-Benhaddou is a striking example of southern Moroccan architecture. Listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site, it has also been the backdrop for many Hollywood productions. Films and TV series that have used the services of the studio include The Mummy, Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven, Babel, Game of Thrones, Vikings, and many more.
Nkob - The journey then continues through the beautiful southern landscape of black canyons and cliffs, home to ancient the Amazigh tribes of Ait Atta. The palm groves and henna fields are stretching along the horizon as we drive through multiply mudbrick ksars (fortified villages) surrounded by charming palm oasis.
The area has its ancestral importance and its key role in the caravan trade route with Timbuktu. In the evening our journey will end in the charming Kasbahs town of Nkob. One of Morocco’s best-kept secrets, this Amazigh oasis is where you can still find traditional craftsmen at work. Enjoy a traditional locally made dinner and an evening of Amazigh drum usic at your accommodation overlooking astonishing palm grooves.
