The central area is one of Morocco's most fascinating and romantic places, with lush rivers, valleys, and palmeries. We'll go through Tinghir into the Ziz Valley and its tumbling canyons. We'll stop for lunch and a stroll at Todgha Gorge before continuing on via Dades Valley, where we'll stay for dinner and overnight.
