Ouarzazate Day Tour From Marrakech

Join us on an unforgettable day trip from Marrakech to Ouarzazate, a journey through dramatic landscapes, ancient history, and cinematic magic. This full-day adventure takes you across the High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi n’Tichka Pass, the highest road pass in Morocco at 2,260 meters.

As we climb the winding roads of the Atlas, enjoy breathtaking views of snow-capped peaks, deep valleys, and remote Berber villages tucked into the hillsides. We’ll pass through a picturesque valley dotted with traditional homes and farmlands, offering insight into rural Moroccan life.

Our first major stop is the iconic Ksar of Ait Ben Haddou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most well-preserved kasbahs in Morocco. This ancient fortified village has served as the backdrop for many famous films and TV shows, including Gladiator, Game of Thrones, and Lawrence of Arabia.

After exploring the narrow alleys and earthen architecture of Ait Ben Haddou, we continue to Ouarzazate, often called the “Hollywood of Morocco.” Here, you’ll enjoy a delicious local lunch and visit the legendary Atlas Film Studios, where countless blockbuster movies have been filmed.

In the afternoon, we begin our return journey to Marrakech, taking in the dramatic scenery once more as we descend through the Atlas Mountains.

This tour covers approximately 400 km round-trip and offers an exciting mix of history, culture, film, and nature, perfect for travelers seeking a deeper look at Morocco beyond the city walls.
