Contact us for best price.

After breakfast we travel from Ouarzazate to the village of Taznakht, famous for its Berber carpets and rugs. We stop at a local Berber carpet cooperative where local female artists create their artwork and sell direct to the public. We can watch the process from dying the raw wool, spinning the fiber into strands before weaving the carpet or rug.

We next travel to the hidden oasis of Fint, surrounded by high mountains and nestling along a river. Fint Oasis is a traditional Berber village and once served as the head of the caravan route from the Sahara. It is a secluded spot for a walk along the river, observe the wildlife in the oasis and have a traditional glass of tea. We will return to Ouarzazate.
