Tips

Good to know

Expect about 8 hours of driving on a winding mountain road. If you have time, the 2-day Zagora tour includes Ait Ben Haddou without driving it in one day.

Every trip is private and can be adjusted: dates, pace, stops and the comfort level of your accommodation. Prices depend on group size and season, so we send a written quote with everything that is included.
