Summary
Ourazazate is often regarded as the natural gateway to the Sahara Desert and a whole plethora of adventures among its sand dunes, largely due to its location within easy reach of the fortified Ksour (village) of Aït Benhaddou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site of incredible beauty. In fact, this is a position this southern Moroccan town has held for centuries. But Ourazazate has plenty of its very own attractions as our guided tours of Ourazazate and numerous television and film productions prove. Its mesmerising desert landscapes are one, and the ageless rammed earth Berber-inspired architecture of the Kasbah Taourirt complex another. Travellers won’t want to miss either.
