South Adventure
The Desert & Kasbah Adventure is a sweeping road journey through Morocco’s High Atlas Mountains, ancient fortified villages (kasbahs), lush palm-filled valleys, and into the heart of the Sahara Desert. Over 6 to 7 days, you’ll discover historic sites like Aït Benhaddou, Dades Gorge, and Todgha Canyon, before riding camels into the desert at Erg Chebbi or Erg Chigaga for an unforgettable night under the stars in a traditional Berber camp.
