    Ksar of Ait-Ben-Haddou

    Experience AIT BENHADDOU and TELOUET Kasbahs day trip from Marrakech. Criss-cross the ATLAS MOUNTAINS and take the road to the Sahara Desert on the old caravan routes. See colorful Villages with houses erected from mud. See trading outposts, local art, and UNESCO World Heritage Sites featured in Hollywood blockbusters. Ride over the famous Tizi-n-Tichka, see Berber villages, and watch as the landscape changes drastically, becoming semi-arid and desert-like as the chain of the Atlas mountains acts as barrier against the Mediterranean climate of the north. Take a side road to the Telouet Kasbah, which belonged to the Pacha of the Atlas, the Glaoui, and was left to ruin after the departure of the French armies. Marvel at the tiled walls, fluted pillars, painted wooden ceilings, and colored glass windows of the reception rooms. This part is optional which means if the drivers stops here you can either go and take a guide (which is excluded in our price; it is usually 2.5€) or go alone.
