As today marks the end of the four-day journey, but the most vivid memory will be Ait Ben Haddou, the road takes you in the direction of Ouarzazate, Africa's Hollywood, where the Atlas Studios is reputed to be one of the world's largest movie studios. While many of our visitors choose not to visit the film studio, the Kasbah de Taorirt in town is worth a visit. Then we'll go to the Kasbah of Ait Benhaddou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that, in addition to being the best extant example of a walled town protected by Kasbahs, the homes of the wealthy and powerful, has served as the setting for many Hollywood blockbusters and major historical television shows.Gladiator and Lawrence of Arabia are two examples. If you've seen A Game of Thrones, you'll recognize Ait Ben Haddou from the series' final scene. (Several locations, including Essaouira, have been used in the series.) We continue our journey through the High Atlas Mountains, crossing the Tizni Tichka pass at 2260 meters, Morocco's highest road pass. It provides breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys, mountains, and Berber villages. Arrival in Marrakech in the evening, and the end of the 4-day desert tour from Fes to the desert and Marrakech.
The four-day Sahara desert tour from Fes to Marrakech has come to an end! We sincerely hope you had a good time on our trip!
