Marrakech: Excursion Aït Ben Haddou & Ouarzazate via the Atlas

The Tizi n'Tichka pass is a spectacular pass in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, connecting Marrakech to Ouarzazate and the Draa Valley. The pass, which is about 2,260 metres above sea level, is the highest road crossing in the country and is a highlight for travellers to destinations such as Ait Benhaddou, Ouarzazate and the Sahara Desert.

One of the best places to visit is the Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, which is considered a historical legacy of commercial caravans that moved from South Africa to Moroccan cities and the nature of Amazigh life at that time. Ben Haddou is considered one of the historic monuments incarnated in coherent kasbahs and Alia is what led UNESCO to classify it as a world historic monument, making it an artistic destination par excellence through the representation of an international group. filming takes place there, not to mention the wall surrounding the Kasbah following the events of the conflicts that occurred at that time. It also includes a castle at the top in addition to the nearby town Ouarzazat.

Atlas Studios is one of the largest film studios in the world, located in Ouarzazate, Morocco. Founded in 1983, it was decided to use it as a set for many international films and television series, knowing that you had to pay for desserts or stories.

After a day filled with happiness and discoveries, you return to Marrakech.
