Day 1: Agadir – Taroudant – Taliouine – Taznakhet – Draa Valley – Agdaz – Zagora

The initial leg involves a pickup from your Agadir accommodation, followed by a scenic route through Berber villages en route to Zagora, passing through Taroudant, Taliouine (the saffron capital), and Taznakhet. Pause in Taliouine to delve into saffron lore and interact with local Berbers, then savor a delectable Berber cuisine lunch on the journey to Tazenakhet.
Traverse the Draa Valley, shaped by the merging Dades and Imini Rivers, before arriving in Zagora for a mesmerizing camel ride into the desert, culminating in a picturesque sunset vista. Meet the desert camp crew and revel in an evening of Sahrawi musical serenades beneath the desert skies.

Bid farewell to Zagora as you embark on a camel ride to witness the enchanting desert sunrise. Following breakfast, commence your return journey to Agadir, traversing captivating landscapes and notable landmarks en route, including Agdz.
Pause in Agdz, a quaint town nestled in southern Morocco, offering panoramic views of the Atlas Mountains and showcasing ancient Amazigh architecture alongside historic Kasbahs. Don’t miss the sight of Jbel Kissane, renowned for its Tajine dish-shaped topography. Enjoy a brief lunch break in Agdz, aptly named the “place of rest.”
Post-lunch, proceed towards Agadir via Taznakhet, with opportunities for stops along the way to peruse antique rugs. Finally, pass through Taroudant, often likened to a miniature Marrakech, before arriving back in Agadir by evening.
