Particularly recommended are our long tours of 8 days or more as described in the example below*: The caravan leads you through wide dune landscapes and on narrow, barely visible shepherd paths through the impressive Jebel Bani Mountains with its gorges and plateaus. Here you will discover oases with water basins or bubbling springs, palm trees, oleanders. Again and again, you will encounter nomadic families who graze their flocks of sheep and goats in the mountains.

Our carefully planned and hiked tours away from tourism allow you to enjoy silence and relaxation as well as being cared for by the nomadic team with delicious Moroccan cuisine, Berber tea and the occasional campfire in the evening, in the embers of which the traditional flatbread is baked.

If you want to have an insight into the agriculture of the Sahara region, Hafid Benyachou offers you to visit the farm and fields of his relatives before or after a trekking tour. It is also possible to start or end a trek at the nomads and semi-nomads village in the high valley of Tafraout/Bani. Hafid Benyachou has taught here for some years at the school for nomads, knows the families and will gladly guide you to the gardens and houses of the inhabitants. The old nomad school is now a meeting place for young and old (see Trekking and Homestay).

It is recommended to plan 1-2 days in Zagora before and after a trekking tour, to let the experiences from the desert sink in, to relax in a hamam, to visit the authentic weekly market (Wednesday and Sunday) and to browse in the numerous shops (Amezrou and Zagora).
