About this tour

Our longest day trip, but worth every kilometre. You cross the High Atlas over the 2,260 m Tizi n'Tichka pass with photo stops, then enjoy a guided visit of Aït Ben Haddou – the earthen ksar seen in Gladiator and Game of Thrones – including the climb to the hilltop granary.

In the afternoon continue to Ouarzazate for the Taourirt Kasbah and, if you like, the Atlas Film Studios, before driving back with an optional argan cooperative stop.
