Continuing our adventure, we journey to the Berber village of Agdez, where we’ll be captivated by the picturesque landscapes of the Draa Valley.

As the day draws to a close, we reach the Zagora desert, where you’ll enjoy a one-hour camel ride into the desert to marvel at a breathtaking sunset. Tonight’s accommodation will be in a traditional Berber nomad tent, where you’ll savor a delicious dinner under the desert sky at your desert camp.
