Tour features
Six days sightseeing and camel safari tour from the red Imperial city of Marrakech to the southern Moroccan Draa valley. The Draa is Morocco's longest river at 1,100 kilometers and flows from the High Atlas Mountains, its water used to irrigate the 200km of dense palm groves, apricot and pomegranate trees along the river. The inhabitants of the Draa are called the Drawa and still live and farm the land in the same traditional and cultural way of their forefathers. The Draa valley is dominated by its lush palm groves, preserves numerous traditional pisé clay fortified Kasbahs, old fortresses and ksours framed by rocky mountains.
