What you can expect
08:00 – Departure from Your Hotel in Boumalne-Dadès
After breakfast, depart with your local Berber guide.
The road winds through ancient kasbahs and small mountain villages clinging to red cliffs.
Your first stop is the village of Aït Oudinar, offering a panoramic view of the Dadès Valley, covered with gardens, almond trees, and palm groves.
09:30 – Drive Through the Famous Dadès Gorges
Continue along the breathtaking road through the “Monkey Fingers” rock formations (Tamlat) and the dramatic Tissadrine switchbacks.
Enjoy a photo stop at the top viewpoint overlooking the Saghro Mountains and the High Atlas range, glowing under the morning light.
11:00 – Off-Road to the Nomads’ Mountains near Msemrir
Leave the main road and take a scenic off-road track towards the Tagdilt Plateau and the Djebel Msemrir area, home to the Aït Atta Berber nomads.
The landscape becomes raw and silent — pure nature shaped by wind and time.
Here, Morocco reveals its most authentic and untouched face.
12:00 – Meet a Nomadic Family
Arrive at a nomadic camp and be welcomed by a Berber family in their traditional goat-hair tent.
Share a mint tea ceremony, taste freshly baked bread cooked under the ashes, and try homemade goat butter.
Listen to stories about their way of life, seasonal migrations, and deep connection with the mountains.
13:30 – Berber Lunch with the Nomads
Enjoy a homemade vegetable tagine, traditional bread, and local dried fruits.
This simple yet heartwarming meal becomes an unforgettable moment of cultural exchange — surrounded by children, flocks, and the vast silence of the mountains.
16:30 – Gentle Walk and Sunset Experience
Take a short hike to a panoramic viewpoint facing the Dadès Valley and the majestic Mount Mgoun (4,071 m), the second-highest peak in Morocco.
Witness a breathtaking sunset as the rocks turn deep red and the sky glows golden — a moment of pure serenity between earth and sky.
18:30 – Return to Your Hotel in Boumalne-Dadès
Drive back through peaceful Berber villages while the evening light fades over the valley.
Arrive at your hotel by nightfall for dinner and rest, carrying with you the memory of a timeless day among Morocco’s mountain nomads.
