Desert tours Ouarzazate

Must-see city of the Great South of Morocco, Ouarzazate is representative of the typical architecture of this part of Morocco. Several Ouarzazate desert tours allow discovering the “natural beauty” of its surroundings and of the Sahara. The region of Ouarzazate is very rich in beautiful landscapes thanks to its kasbahs, its valleys, its oases, and the large desert plateau.

Ouarzazate is the meeting point of two valleys crossed by two rivers (Oued Ouarzazate and Oued Dades). The two rivers give birth to Oued Drâa.

Discover The Drâa Valley
From Ouarzazate and to the desert extends the beautiful Draa Valley with its beautiful palm grove and small typical Berber villages. You will visit the Drâa Valley if you’re doing an Ouarzazate desert tour to M’hamid or to the big dunes of Erg Chigaga.

You can also discover two famous kasbahs: the Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou which is northwest of Ouarzazate and the Kasbah of Telouet, located a little further in the Atlas. Often, you can enjoy a visit of these Kasbahs during a Morocco desert tour.
