Morocco Oases, Ksour and Desert Architecture in 14 Days
Ksar Aït Benhaddou, Marocco Aït Benhaddou (Arabic: آيت بن حدّو) is a historic ighrem or ksar (fortified village) along the former caravan route between the Sahara and Marrakesh in Morocco. It is considered a great example of Moroccan earthen clay architecture and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Sit
Along the itinerary
Morocco Oases, Ksour and Desert Architecture in 14 Days is a 14-day, 13-night multi-stop itinerary built around a long-form earthen-architecture and water-systems itinerary linking the Draa, Saghro, Tafilalet and remote Oriental oasis.
Each oasis cluster is read as a living settlement system, not scenery; Bouarfa is inserted as the high-plateau safety stage so the final move to Figuig is not an unbroken Merzouga-to-oasis endurance drive.
Morocco Oases, Ksour and Desert Architecture in 14 Days connects Ouarzazate, Skoura, Agdz.
