Telouet/Ait Ben Haddou

Contact us for best price.

We pick you up from your hotel or riad in Marrakesh and depart after breakfast to travel into and across the High Atlas Mountains.

After a spectacular drive on the Tizi-n-Tichka pass, we take a side road to the Telouet Kasbah, a superb example of Moorish architecture, which belonged to the Lords of the Atlas, the Glaoui family, and which now stands in ruins after the last Pasha fled the country following the departure of the French from The Kingdom of Morocco.

From there we continue on to lunch at Ait Ben Haddou. This is the most famous Kasbah in Morocco and is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Many films have been shot in Ait Ben Haddou including Gladiator, Prince of Persia and parts of the series Game of Thrones.

After a lunch set in the iconic surrounds of Ait Ben Haddou with spectacular views of the valley below, we return through the High Atlas Mountains to Marrakesh.
