    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 3: Cascades Dโ€™Ouzoud & Ait Bougemez

      Marrakech - Ait Bougamez. An early morning departure takes us into the High Atlas Mountains along the route, for Fes. After a short drive we turn off south and arrive at the glorious waterfall of the Cascades Dโ€˜Ouzoud for lunch. After taking some time to rest and enjoy our magnificent surroundings itโ€™s back onto the scenic mountain road past Azilal and onward to reach the heart of the High Atlas โ€“ the valley of Ait Bougamez. Ait Bougemez is a hidden gem, a valley close to Ighil Mgoun, the highest summit in Morocco apart from the Toubkal Range. The area is popular for trekking, as there is a long and easy trek from the Tessaout Sources/Tarkeddid Plateau, which is reached from the Ait Bougmez Valley. Exploring the valley is easily done on foot and it can be preferable to driving, as so many places still have poor roads. The centre of the region is the village of Tabant, and from here, in less than an hourโ€™s walk several small villages can be explored - Imelghas, Iskatafene, Ikhf-n-Ighir, Agouti, Ait Imi Iqballioun, Ifrane, and Arous. Three hours walk away is the village of Taghoulit. With incredibly striking scenery and off the beaten track location, Ait Bougmez is still unspoilt. Here, youโ€™ll spend the next three nights in a Kasbah, exploring the beautiful surrounding area.

  • Day 4 Day 4: Scenic Walk & Picnic In The Hills
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 4: Scenic Walk & Picnic In The Hills

      Today, we can take a mule ride to the dinosaur tracks at the head of the valley, the route winds through fields of grain and the apple and almond orchards. After a picnic in the hills, we return to the Kasbah via a different route, stopping for a cup of tea in a Berber house.

    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 5: World Heritage Site Of Sidi Moussa

In the afternoon, take a walk up to the World Heritage Site of Sidi Moussa - an ancient granary and fortification.

      Marrakech - Essaouira. This morning we journey Essaouira, about 2.5 hours drive from Marrakech. Essaouira is a quiet seaside town with a long beach, an interesting little medina with souks and a grand harbour and fortifications. Itโ€™s the perfect place to relax either on the beach, in a cafe on the square, or just watching the fishing boats coming in and out of the harbour. Essaouira has avoided becoming a tourist trap and maintains the original charm which made it a firm favourite with many legendary stars, including Jimi Hendrix, Bob Marley and Orson Welles who filmed Othello in Essaouira.

Tonight, why not try one of the many tasty restaurants in the medina, where seafood is the speciality.
