Erfoud

Erfoud, which was submerged beneath water millions of years ago, will also be passed by. That’s why there are a lot of fossils there.

Market Rissani

We will then take a car to the Rissani market. It was a distinct kingdom known as Sijilmassa from the eighth to the fourteenth centuries. The thriving caravan routes that led from Tombouctou, the capital of Mali, to various Moroccan cities such as Fes and Marrakech created a thriving market there. The market is still in existence today.

It is intriguing since it caters to the local population rather than being a tourist souk. Due to the farmers’ and nomads’ gatherings three times a week (on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays) to sell their produce, animals, and other goods, it doubles in size.

The party will move in the direction of the Sarhro volcanic mountains from this point. boasting breathtaking views of the Draa Valley, Morocco’s largest oasis, and dramatic rock formations.
