Question 2

What to expect During this tour?

Accepted Answer

We will start our scenic film tour along the ‘route of a thousand Kasbahs’. This classic route heads out of Marrakesh across the Atlas Mountains to Ouarzazate passing by the backdrops of numerous films. Just before you reach Ouarzazate, you will see the fortified city of Ait Benhaddou, the city has a frozen-in-time feeling as it still strongly resembles its 11th century design. The red brick Kasbah served as the backdrop for such films as The Mummy, Lawrence of Arabia and Jesus of Nazareth.  It provided the perfect location for Ridley Scotts Gladiator, and was a no-brainer for the filming of Season 3 of Game of Thrones, affectionately known by enthusiasts as ‘the Moroccan season’. More recently Ait Benhaddou provided one of the locations in David Attenborough’s  A Life On Our Planet. Very few Families still live in this World Heritage site as most residents have moved into a more modern village across the Ounila River, it is far more than a movie set and remains home to some families.
