After a stroll through the Atlas mountains, passing by the potter’s village, the cemetery, and the beautiful Berber Jewish village surrounded by greenery, enjoy a Berber lunch with locals featuring a high Atlas Berber Tagine. Continue through the Zat Valley, a hidden Berber paradise in the heart of the Atlas Mountains, still unknown to many tourists. You can extend the journey to the remote village of “Ait Ali” behind the mountain. On the way back, there’s an option to visit a women’s cooperative where 24 local women craft beautiful embroidery and glassware (Monday to Friday afternoon). Return to Marrakech around 5 PM.
