Nestled in the middle of the Ounila Valley is Ait Ben Haddou, an ancient Ksar along the former caravan route from the Sahara to Marrakech. Famous for being a hotspot for film sets such as Gladiator and Game of Thrones, no one lives in the Ksar any longer, but 4 families in ancient mudbrick houses.
Surrounded by the red Ourika Valley mountains, neighboring Berber villages, lush landscapes and the snow-capped Atlas mountains lies Kasbah Bab Ourika. Dine beneath unpolluted night skies, bask in the breathtaking 360 degree view while reading a book, or indulge in a spa treatment. Kasbah Bab Ourika is the ultimate romantic and genuine Moroccan escape.

Riad Caravane is a stylish yet simple riad with Berber touches located in the rustic and sophisticated setting of Ait Ben Haddou. Just a few steps away from the UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is the perfect stay for those looking for a night on the edge of the desert or a weekend getaway in a peaceful and secluded oasis.
From this point onward, forget everything you have heard or read about driving through the Tizi N'Tichka Pass from Marrakech to the desert. Here's the truth about driving through the Pass based on my first hand experience.
Walk down a rabbit hole of dark alleys and step into a dark entrance were you are greeted by a beautiful candle lit courtyard surrounded by orange pillars, intricate archways, a rose petal fountain and candle lit tables. Dar Cherifa offers a local and romantic dinner in the oldest riad in Marrakech.
