The Full Circle of the South 4days/3 nights

The Full Circle of the South 4days/3 nights

This circuit is a combination of several successful landscapes; it takes us through their towering walls. A bewitching cocktail of colours purple, pink, rust, tan and purple ... An original route that plunges us into the authentic life of southern Morocco.
The scenery, as it rushes past, is intensely beautiful - a blur of browns, yellows and blues. The area is inhabited by the Berbers who most of them used to adopt the nomadic style as their life style. It attracts tourists from all over the world. Tourists visit the area to mingle it with the locals, enjoy camel trekking, the quietness of the desert, sunset and sunrise...etc. Right at the heart of the Berber country, the Drâa Valley is a series of oases and palm groves along the river's course, between the last of the Anti-Atlas Mountains and the very gates of the desert, first of stone, and then of sand. From Ouarzazate to Zagora, the road first crosses the plateau of Jebel Tifemine, almost a desert expanse, and then the road rises amid steep canyons to the Tizi n 'Tinififlt.

• The great valleys of southern Morocco: Dadès, Draa, the High Atlas and Anti Atlas.
• Todra and Dadès Gorges
• The agrarian and pastoral life, linked to a centuries-old tradition.
• Desert landscapes.
• The authentic face of the Sahara with its Kasbahs and ksours.
• A real track to discover the real Morocco.

All natural characteristics are present from Valleys, Dunes, and Palm groves passing through ancient Kasbahs.
