Travel Detail

After breakfast, embark on a scenic drive toward the majestic High Atlas Mountains. As you wind through the rugged terrain, prepare to encounter traditional Berber villages and picturesque valleys that await your exploration.

Arriving in Imlil, a charming Berber village nestled in the foothills of the High Atlas Mountains, you'll have the pleasure of meeting your local mountain guide. Your trekking adventure begins here. Venture into the surrounding mountains, where time seems to stand still. Along the way, immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of Berber culture and history, as your guide shares fascinating insights.

At a scenic spot, pause to savor a traditional Berber lunch with a welcoming local family. The meal, crafted from locally sourced ingredients, includes a refreshing salad, flavorful Tagine or Couscous, and freshly baked bread. It's a true feast for the senses.

As you continue your trek, be prepared to be awestruck by waterfalls cascading down the mountainsides and panoramic vistas that stretch as far as the eye can see. Your guide will expertly point out the local flora and fauna, adding depth to your journey.

Return to Imlil, where you bid farewell to your guide--a temporary companion who shared the magic of this rugged landscape. Meet your driver, and begin the journey back to Marrakech, where you'll be dropped off at The Bennounas Farm for a delightful dinner and an overnight stay

The Bennounas Farm, with its olive groves, citrus trees, vegetable garden, and array of amenities, promises a tranquil and memorable experience in the heart of the Valley of Ourika.

A great peaceful farm where nature and fun get together.

After breakfast, immerse yourself in the rustic charm of The Bennounas Farm. Begin your day with a short Mules/Donkey ride, exploring the idyllic surroundings. As you return to the farm, take advantage of the host's thoughtful facilities.

For a moment of serenity, ascend to the farmhouse roof and indulge in a 20-minute meditation (you can also opt for a yoga class, available upon request at your own expense). A light lunch will be lovingly served, providing sustenance for the day's adventures.

If the season permits, cool off in the inviting swimming pool, or quench your thirst with refreshing drinks (please note that alcoholic beverages incur an extra charge). Alternatively, embark on a breathtaking walk through the picturesque surroundings, where nature's beauty unfolds.

At 4 PM, the excitement continues as you prepare for a cooking class. Harvest fresh vegetables from the garden (if the season allows), then head to the kitchen for an immersive experience led by the New York Times 3-star Executive Chef. You'll create culinary magic together.

As evening descends, witness the sunset from the villa's terrace, a moment of quiet reflection. Sip on Moroccan tea or coffee, savoring the flavors of this enchanting land. Finally, retreat to your cozy abode at the farm for a restful overnight stay.

A great peaceful farm where nature and fun get together.

As you depart Marrakech, the distant haze gradually resolves into a jagged mountain range, none other than the High Atlas Mountains, which dramatically thrust upward from the surrounding plain. Our chosen route traces the very path once traversed by ancient caravans, laden with gold and precious wood from the far reaches of the Sahara, destined for Marrakech.

Enchanting scenery unfolds as we journey through small villages, each tiered against the landscape. Amongst oak trees, walnut groves, and intermittent snow patches, we ascend to the Tizi n Tichka pass, standing tall at 2,260 meters. Beyond this pass lies an entirely different vista: the lunar landscape of the Anti-Atlas.

Continuing our adventure, we skirt past Ouarzazate, pausing for a leisurely lunch (at your own expense). Our tour then leads us to another verdant oasis: the Skoura Palm Grove, nestled between arid crests and desolate plateaus. Here, the air is fragrant with the essence of roses.
Kelaa des Mgouna awaits, renowned for its proximity to the Valley of Roses and its vibrant Rose Festival. During this three-day celebration, held annually in May, a local girl is crowned the Rose Queen. The most coveted product? Eau-de-rose, distilled and exported by two factories in the area. Remarkably, it takes approximately three thousand kilograms of rose petals to yield a single liter of precious rose oil.

Our journey continues to Boulmane Dades, the gateway to explore the spectacular Gorges of Dades. Here, a lush carpet of vegetation contrasts against massive rock formations. For the adventurous, there's even the option to hike with mules (at your own expense).

As the day draws to a close, we settle in for a delightful dinner and overnight stay at our chosen hotel. The High Atlas Mountains have woven their magic, and we're immersed in their captivating tale.

We offer a place full of incredible corners. Ready for you to have a unique experience. We have a capacity for 67 people. With a total of 16 rooms of different capacities.

As we resume our journey, our first captivating stop is Tinghir. This oasis town boasts an extensive palm grove, where ksour (fortified villages) cling to rocky hillsides, and a mysterious decaying Jewish quarter whispers tales of bygone eras. For generations, Tinghir has served as a vital rest point for nomadic Berber tribes traveling from the northern mountains toward the vast desert.

A hidden gem awaits: a 19th-century adobe mosque, nestled within the crumbling ksour. Photography enthusiasts find solace here, capturing the essence of time. But Tinghir's allure extends beyond its architectural wonders.

A mere 15 kilometers away, the Gorges of Todra unfold--a captivating scene where a crystal-clear river emerges from the earth. Enormous walls, their hues shifting with the sun's passage, create a magical effect. These 300-meter-high cliffs harbor over 150 bolted climbing routes, attracting adventurers who scale their rugged faces throughout the day.

Continuing our journey, we pass through Erfoud and Rissani. In Erfoud, a visit to the Musée des Oasis beckons if time permits. Rissani, once the final stop on the great southern caravan route, witnessed gold and slave auctions in the 1800s. But even before that, the bustling city of Sijilmassa held sway. Its ruins now lie opposite Rissani, echoing tales of grandeur.

Soon, Merzouga comes into view--the gateway to the Sahara. Here, the dunes of Erg Chebbi rise like ancient leviathans. Hop aboard a powerful 4WD Land Rover, surfing the sandy sea toward our desert camp. As dawn breaks, savor a camel ride across the golden sand dunes of Merzouga.

Dinner awaits, served under a Berber tent, where the desert's whispers blend with starlight. Our journey through Morocco's enchanting landscapes continues

The bivouac has 8 typical Berber tents all with en-suite bathroom with hot water, a separate tent which is the restaurant and a lovely corner covered with Moroccan carpets where you can relax and admire the milky way...
