About the Tour
We planned this trip for couples who want space and quiet. You sleep in a kasbah hotel near Aït Benhaddou, at a luxury camp in Erg Chigaga where the tents are well apart, and in a garden kasbah in the Skoura oasis.
The pace is slow, with late starts where the road allows and a free day in the dunes. A private dinner in the dunes can be arranged if you ask.
Highlights
- The kasbah road through Telouet
- A kasbah hotel by Aït Benhaddou
- Two nights in a luxury tent in Erg Chigaga
- A free day in the dunes
- A garden kasbah in the Skoura oasis
