Visit the “black village” of Khamlia for a Gnawa music performance, and enjoy a traditional Berber pizza lunch in Rissani. In the afternoon, ride camels across the dunes to watch the sunset before returning to your desert camp for a traditional tagine dinner, mint tea, and Berber music under the starry Sahara sky.

Rise early to witness the desert sunrise, then return on camelback to the village. Depart for Tinghir to see the Todra Gorge, the highest and narrowest gorge in Morocco, with optional hiking. After lunch, continue to the Dades Gorge, stopping to admire unique geological formations known as “monkey toes.” Overnight at a local hotel or riad in Dades Gorge.
