Hollywood of the Sahara: Making movies amidst the dunes.

4.5
out of 5

Ouarzazate is an enchanting desert town in the High Atlas Mountains of Morocco. Its position at the crossroads of the Sahara Desert and the majestic Atlas Mountains make it an ideal base for exploration of both landscapes. Marvel at the nearby Kasbahs and ancient fortifications, the rugged mountain peaks in the background, and the endless sand dunes of the desert. Wander the quaint streets of the city, shop for traditional souvenirs and sample the delicious local cuisine. For the adventurous, take a camel ride into the desert and stay overnight in a traditional nomad tent. Experience the silence and beauty of the Sahara while watching the stars come out over the horizon. Ouarzazate is an unforgettable destination for travelers seeking an authentic Moroccan experience.
