The first day of the tour goes from Marrakech over the High Atlas Mountains with steep, winding roads, crossing the Tizi n’Tichka pass at 2260 m above the sea level. The high mountain pass offers stunning views of mountain landscapes. After crossing the mountains we will reach one of the highlights of the tour – the UNESCO World Heritage site of Kasbah Ait ben Haddou. It is a fortified village along the former caravan route between the Sahara and Marrakech. Due to its ancient historic look a number of world famous movies shot in Morocco have used Ait ben Haddou as a location. The route continues through the Valley of Thousand Kasbahs. The first night is spent in a hotel in the Dades Valley.
