In the afternoon you will cross over the Atlas Mountains through Tizi'n'Tishka pass to Ouarzazate, standing on the threshold of the Sahara Desert, the town was originally a staging point for trans-Saharan caravans but was expanded during the colonial era as a garrison for the French Foreign Legion.

Kasbah Taourirt and Draa Valley
This morning you will visit Kasbah Taourirt, set amoung a background of beautiful mountain scenery and the Sahara Desert, it is one of the most stunning Kasbahs in Morocco, once a strategic location for the Saharan Caravan Route to West Africa. The Kasbahs are best described as a labyrinth of alleyways with multi-level towers, a great place to explore!
This afternoon you will depart from Ouarzazate on a fascinating journey through the lush Draa Valley – a strip of intense cultivation along the Oued Draa, a river formed from the melt waters of the Atlas Mountains. The beauty and colour of the fields and villages is intensified by their stark contrast to the towering Atlas Mountains to the north and the desert to the south.
This evening you will be staying at Hotel Saharan Sky which has its own observatory. Tonight you will have use of the observatory with our astronomy expert on hand to point out the wonders of the universe. April is a great time to look up in the night sky.

Tidri Dunes - Camel ride
After breakfast you watch as the camel drivers load your beasts before finally setting off. You will set off by camel (walking is an option) across flat, open, stony plains are traversed by cracked riverbeds to Dunes de Tidri - a magical area of rolling dunes in the middle of nowhere which, though not high, stretch spectacularly off into the distance. As your camels wend their way across the rolling sand-scape you may find the ideal moment to photograph this classic desert caravan scene. Sunset is often the most magical time of day; as the fading light illuminates the golden sand enticing soft browns and reds from the distant escarpments.

Ait Benhaddou
You travel to Ait Benhaddou, a small village made famous by the film Gladiator, it is one of the countries best preserved Kasbah. With its slit windows and dramatic walls of red earth, this is a magnificent example of a stronghold. Dating from around the 15th century, its importance as a trading post gradually dwindled, and today’s inhabitants eke out a living from farming the meagre soil.
This evening there will be an opportunity to look up at the skies. There is limited light pollution in Ait Benhaddou and is a great location to view the wonders of the sky. Our astronomy expert will be on hand to answer any questions you may have. Hotel La Kasbah - (B)
