Embrace the nomadic lifestyle with a visit to a traditional Berber tent, savoring the warmth of Berber hospitality. As the sun casts its magical hues across the desert, bid farewell to Zagora and begin the journey back to Marrakech. Traverse diverse landscapes, from arid plains to the lush Draa Valley, and reminisce about the unique experiences encountered in just two days.
