At 7.30 a.m., your driver will take you up from your Marrakech lodging. We go across the High Atlas Highlands through the Tichka Pass (2260 m), Morocco's highest road pass, which offers amazing panoramic views of the mountains and valleys while meandering through the mountains. Along the trip, take in the magnificent scenery with a variety of colors and the Berber settlements. Along the trip, we'll stop at numerous kasbahs, including Tamnougalt and Ait Benhaddou. Ait Benhaddou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site from the 16th century, is one of Morocco's best-preserved and most beautiful kasbahs. A popular filming location in Hollywood, Ait Benhaddou was included in the blockbuster film Gladiator. The journey continues along the Draa river valley, which is dotted with palm trees.
