Transfer to Ouarzazate & Ait Ben Haddou
Head toward Ait Ben Haddou, a well-known fortified village located about 30 km from Ouarzazate. This site has been used as a setting in several well-known films, including Gladiator and Game of Thrones. The village, made up of earthen buildings surrounded by defensive walls, gives a sense of how people lived in earlier times and remains a point of interest for visitors to the region. On the way, stop at the Taourirt Kasbah, a structure built in the 19th century that once served as the residence of the Glaoui family, who held power in southern Morocco. The kasbah is made up of interconnected rooms, passageways, and decorative details that reflect its former role. Another nearby stop is the Fint Oasis, a quiet spot surrounded by palm trees, hills, and a small river. This area is home to a few Berber villages where daily routines remain closely tied to the land. A short walk through the area provides a look at traditional homes and agricultural practices that continue today. These locations, each with their own background and setting, offer a calm and informative day trip from Ouarzazate.
