Desert Full-Day Trip

The excursion is long but it is good. The guide is friendly although he doesn't give many explanations. The only thing is that he offered us an alternative of going to a fishing village instead of Tiznit and the activity ended much earlier than expected (the town we went to was not bad but perhaps it was more worth going to Tiznit).

Description

Spend a once in a lifetime experience in the Moroccan Desert. Visit the Youssef ben Tachfine Dam, marvel at the dunes of Rsmouka and eat a traditional Amazigh lunch.

Desert Full-Day Trip

We'll collect you from your hotel in Agadir between 8:20 and 8:40 am, and head towards the endless desert. During the one hour and a half journey, admire how the landscape becomes increasingly drier until it becomes red sand dunes.

Our first stop is the Youssef ben Tachfine Dam, a large water reserve in the middle of the desert. Following a brief stop to explore this area, we'll head deeper into the desert landscape to explore the famous dunes of Rsmouka.

To replenish our strength, we'll visit a local Amazigh house to taste a traditional meal of tajine and couscous with fresh fruit and mint tea. With our energy recharged, we'll head back out on the road in the direction of Tiznit, known as the capital of silver.

Strolling through the old town, we'll witness the historic city walls and discover the silver Amazigh jewellery - the principle handicraft of the city. At the end of the tour, we'll visit the fisherman’s caves of Tiznit before heading home, crossing the Massa Valley on the way.

La journée avec Mohamed a été riche en découvertes. La prise en charge à l’hôtel et ses explications. tout au long de la journée ont été parfaites. Nous sommes souvent arrivés les premiers sur les différents lieux à visiter ce qui était super. Le repas du midi nous a régalé. Nous recommandons vivement cette excursion.

La excursión es larga pero está bien. El guía es simpático aunque no da muchas explicaciones. Lo único es que nos ofreció una alternativa de ir a un pueblo de pescadores en lugar de a Tiznit y la actividad acabó mucho antes de lo previsto ( el pueblo al que fuimos no estaba mal pero tal vez merecía más la pena ir a Tiznit).
