A propos de cette activités
Embarquez pour une aventure passionnante à 7:15 grâce à cette visite en petit groupe au départ de Marrakech à travers les magnifiques montagnes du Haut Atlas dont les cimes enneigées se mélangent aux nuages, offrant ainsi un paysage impressionnant et absolument époustouflant à chaque coin du célèbre « Hollywood d’Afrique », avec ses anciennes kasbahs, ses routes de caravanes, ses sites classés au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO, ses villages berbères traditionnels et sa riche culture du sud du Maroc. Découvrez pourquoi Ouarzazate et Aït-ben-Haddou ont servi de décor à des centaines de films hollywoodiens, de Gladiator à Kingdom of Heaven, en passant par Prince of Persia, Capitaine Philips et A Hologram for the King.

Vous ferez un trajet panoramique au départ de Marrakech vers le plus haut col d’Afrique du Nord (2 269 mètres), le tizi n’Tichka, où vous aurez une vue fascinante sur le Haut Atlas. Avant d’atteindre la capitale du désert, Ouarzazate, vous pourrez visiter la célèbre kasbah Aït-ben-Haddou, la ville en argile fortifiée classée au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO. Parsemée de tours à créneaux et décorée de motifs géométriques, cette ville compte parmi les trésors culturels du monde. Transformez-vous en roi arabe en profitant d’une promenade à dos de chameau de 20 minutes (en option) qui vous emmènera dans un monde où le temps semble s’être arrêté. Vous ferez ensuite une pause déjeuner dans un restaurant typique d’Aït Ben Haddou (en option).

De là, continuez jusqu’à Ouarzazate, qui marque le début du Sahara. Visitez la grandiose kasbah Taourirt qui appartenait autrefois aux seigneurs de l’Atlas, la famille Glaoui. Cette ancienne résidence spectaculaire du pacha Glaoui, située en bordure de ville, en chemin vers le désert du Sahara marocain, est considérée comme l’une des plus belles kasbahs du Maroc. Elle consiste en un labyrinthe de maisons en argile de luxe et de tours à créneaux somptueusement décorées. Après du temps libre pour un thé à la menthe ou un café, vous retournerez à Marrakech plus tard dans l’après-midi en traversant le Haut Atlas.

Vous serez déposé à votre hôtel de Marrakech dans la soirée, avec des photos, mais également les histoires et les souvenirs de vos rencontres avec les populations autochtones et un bel aperçu de la beauté et de l’hospitalité du désert marocain.

+ve: 1) The view is good 2) Comfortable vehicle 3) Suitable for traveler that have only 1 day for the Ouarzazate and Ait Ben Haddou -ve: 1) Tour Guide in Ait Ben Haddou is not good. He walked too fast that did not find out some of the participants cannot follow. And one of my parent fall down as she trying too hard to catch the pace 2) Entry/Admission - Ksar of Ait-Ben-Haddou is not included ( Actually it is just 10-15 MAD per person, but they will not give you the change if you are not preparing some coins for this ) which is different from the content mentioned on web-site. The tour guide in Ait Ben Haddou will walk straight and pass through a gate in the bottom of Ait-Ben-Haddou. And you have to pay for the Admission so that you can go inside and chase the tour guide. 3. We choose the package without Lunch, but the driver will drop-off the participants to an expensive restaurant ( Around 120 - 150 MAD for a lunch ). Comparing the food in the city is relatively high.

The local company used by Viator in Marrakech to conduct this tour is In Style Travel Events. Our guide’s name was Said, who was extremely accommodating and helpful, with a great sense of humour. He drew our attention to many points of interest along the very long journey (4 hours each way) through the beautiful Atlas Mountains. We stopped off at a couple of places enroute for refreshments and to take photographs at some notable viewpoints. Our first major stop was Ouarzazate, where we were handed over to our local guide, Muhammed, who had amazing knowledge of the Kasbah and the movies filmed in the immediate area. Then it was on to Ait Ben Haddou, where again our local guide was named Muhammed. We had a wonderful lunch at a small guest house/restaurant overlooking the old fortified Berber town across the valley. After lunch Muhammed took us on a walking tour through the Old Town, he even invited inside his summer residence (where he was born), which was a special treat. Even though this trip amounts to an extremely long day, these amazing historical monuments - well off the usual beaten path - are most definitely worth seeing. We visited during the latter part of October, which was still quite hot at around 83F, and but as it is a dry heat, very pleasant. Judging by our own experience, I would suggest avoiding the summer months when taking this tour. In addition I would probably recommend an overnight stay in the area of Air Ben Haddou, to break up the long journey through the Atlas mountains each way, and to take in more attractions in the area - such as the movie studios or Berber sites. I have no hesitation in recommending Said and In Style Travel Events to anyone wishing to see these amazing places.

Our driver navigated the windy, mountainous roads with expertise and gave us time to stop on the way for pictures and restrooms. We really enjoyed our guide Muhammad in Ait Ben Haddou, who was very informative and interesting. The village was very culturally unique and one of our favorite parts of our trip.

This tour was truly the highlight of our trip to Marrakech! The day was amazing, and well worth the 4 hour drive each way. The views of the Atlas Mountains on the journey were incredible, and our driver stopped several times for photos and snack/restroom breaks. Our driver, Ahmed, was very professional and knowledgeable. Our morning pickup was right on time, and the Mercedes mini-van was roomy and comfortable. One bit of advice is to take Dramamine (motion sickness medication) prior to the ride, as the curvy mountain roads can definitely cause motion sickness. We took Dramamine, and had a lovely day. The tours of the kasbahs were fascinating, with knowledgeable local tour guides. Highly recommend the camel ride -- the views from high on the camel were beautiful, and there was a surprisingly lovely breeze across the desert.

Had a very poor experience on this trip. Bus used seats 15 at max capacity and was completely full. Middle row seats are acceptable two seats on one side of the aisle and a single seat on the other. My wife and I were the last to be picked up and were wedged in the middle of a back row that seats four passengers. No visibility from windows due to seat height highly uncomfortable seating both in seat width and in seat length. Seating definitely worse than airline economy class cabin, with 8 hours during tour spent in this bad seat. If you plan to take this tour, make sure that you are not the last one to get onto the bus!! Or why take the chance, there are better tours to be had. Our tour the next day with another local company used a Mercedes minivan. As to the tour itself, the locations were interesting once on site and the guides were knowledgeable. Lunch menu was good. Be aware though that while the food is included, the drinks are at your expense.

The drive and sights were beautiful and our driver was professional and took good care of us. The only downside was the restaurant where we had lunch, which was pre-paid, in Ait Ben Haddou. The restaurant was a big tourist shop and service and food weren't very good.

Despite the long travel time 8 hours in total back and forth from Marrakech, I enjoyed this tour as I got to see the Atlas Mountains. Our driver, Ahmed, was accommodating stopping at different sections of the mountain range when we requested him to in order to snap some photos. The locations we went to were all jaw-dropping especially after knowing that most of these were used as filming locations.
