What makes Day trip from Ouarzazate: Teloute, Ait Ben Haddou & Oasis Fint including lunch a unique experience ?
Start the day at the old Kasbah of Ouarzazate named Taourirt where you have some time to explore the narrow pedestrian streets on your own and visit the palace with its countless rooms which seem like a labyrinth. Afterwards, you can have a look at the movie museum just on the other side of the road.
Continue to the Atlas Corporation film studios, where you can discover the diverse sets and listen to the anecdotes of the multiple movies and actors. Several famous movies like Gladiator, Babel, Prince of Persia, and recently The Physician have been shot in those studios. Guided tour of the movie studios in a group included.
A little outside of Ouarzazate lies Aït Ben Haddou, the fortified clay city with its numerous ksars and kasbahs, where several famous movies such as Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven and Prince of Persia have been shot. This photogenic city is also listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site. Enjoy a guided tour with a local guide.
Continue through the breathtaking landscape to Telouet. This fortress was occupied by Thami el Glaoui before he was expelled by independence efforts. One section has unfortunately disintegrated into red sand, but you can still visit the beautiful rooms with mosaic tiles and wood carvings.
After the visit, we pass the High Atlas mountains over the Aguelmous pass with scenic views. We can stop for panoramic views of the berber Villages and visit a cooperative run by women in the Atlas Mountains, where the famous Argan oil is produced by hand and organic delicacies and beauty products are sold.
You’ll continue the tour to the Oasis Fint, where you will enjoy your traditional lunch at a local family’s home. You have time to explore the quiet and peaceful oasis at the river together with a guide and learn about the local life of the friendly inhabitants. Return travel to Ouarzazate and get dropped off at your Hotel/Riad in the late afternoon.
