Our journey today takes us to the Berber Oasis of N’kob. We will be driving through the Anti Atlas ranges to cross The Draa Valley which is one of the most famous places in Morocco for dates; we can stop and try some fresh ones if you like (season dependent). N’Kob is one of Morocco’s best kept secrets, nestled amongst the exotic Palmeries and sat at the foot of the Jebel Saghro mountains. We will have time today to explore some of N’kob’s 45 mudbrick ksour’s (fortified village). We will learn about Ait Atta Nomad’s and their way of life. There will be some time to walk through the Palmerie and soak up the stunning views around followed by having tea in a local family’s home or head back to the hotel to relax for the afternoon.

Excitement is in the air as we head towards the mighty Saharan Dunes. En-route we stop off for lunch and in the summer, we may even have time for a relaxing swim. It is then time to head towards the great desert dunes of Erg Chebbi in Merzouga where we transfer to our camels and trek into the vast Sahara Desert in time for sunset. We then return to our authentic Berber Camp on the edge of the desert to spend the night enjoying local food, music, and an amazing night out under the Saharan stars.

Overnight Berber camp (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner included).
Day 5 Day 5: Todra Gorge
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 5: Todra Gorge

Leaving the desert, we move on to Todra Gorge. This 1000ft gorge is hemmed in on all sides by vertical limestone cliffs and is also called Morocco’s Grand Canyon. From its plunging depths to dizzying heights. The charm of Todra lies in its changing colours as the sun slowly moves from east to west.

We will have time this afternoon to explore the Gorge with a visit to a traditional Berber cooperative for Berber carpets owned by local people. We will learn how the Berbers make their carpets and you will have chance to try your bargaining skills if you are interested in buying one.

For those that fancy a cooking lesson, we will have an option to do this today to prepare and cook your own Moroccan lunch.

Overnight Todra Gorge (Breakfast & Dinner included).

This morning, why not book our optional guided city tour of Marrakech which includes the Koutoubia Mosque, Bahia palace, and the Jewish quarter?

In the afternoon, there will be time to explore the city independently. Within the rose-coloured walls of the medina, you find a reality that is not that far removed from a film set and ancient history; winding streets that open onto lush gardens and dark alleyways that lead to bustling souks. The focal point is the central square, the Djemaa el Fna, an extraordinary gathering point and marketplace. Full of colour, spicy aromas and traders, it is best seen in the evening when overflowing with food stalls, dancers, acrobats, fortune tellers, musicians and henna artists.

Overnight Marrakech (Breakfast included).
