Experience south of Morocco
Come and experience the best that southern Morocco has to offer on a cultural and adventure journey. On this trip you will get to know the south of this magnificent country, the various types of desert, amazing landscapes and meet the Berber people, with all their hospitality, friendship and customs. As soon as you leave the airport you will immediately feel the environment, aromas and colours of Marrakesh. In this trip we will discover different areas, from villages and cities to peaceful deserts and oases, where you will experience very different civilizational standards of those we are used to. In these differences lies the fascination of this adventure.
As in all our tours, we don’t want you to be a mere tourist, but a fellow traveller searching new experiences.
