One Day AitBenhaddou and Telouet Kasbahs

Meet your driver-guide and set off from your hotel for an early start. Travel by 4×4 or minivan and head into the High Atlas Mountains where we will stop in different places to discover many authentic Berber villages, constructed with local earth and stones, and see the numberous surrounding valleys. And reach after the Tizi-n-Tichka pass (2260m in altitude).

 

Cross the impressive High Atlas mountains, then head down into the Ounila valley. Pass through the small kasbah of Pasha Glaoui on your way to Telouet. Located at the foot of the mountains, discover the special decorations and amazing architecture of this kasbah.

 

After the visit, we will continue crossing through villages on the side of valley while heading for the famous AitBenhaddoukasbah. Just before you arrive, stop at a smaller yet still traditional kasbah named Tamdakht before you reach the AitBenhaddou. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987, this has been the setting for many famous films such as, Lawrence of Arabia,Kingdom of heaven and Gladiator. Have lunch in a quiet restaurant, and then visit the kasbah before heading back to Marrakech. Go via the Tichka pass and see other mountain villages.

 

You will arrive back in Marrakech at approximately 7:00pm, once your tour will end.
