Agadir to Tafraout : Art and History Tour

Escape the city and uncover one of Morocco’s most breathtaking and lesser-known destinations on this full-day trip from Agadir to Tafraoute, a hidden gem nestled deep within the Anti-Atlas Mountains.

Travel through ever-changing landscapes—lush valleys, rugged peaks, and dramatic rock formations—as your journey takes you into the heart of Berber country. Along the way, pass through traditional villages and stop for scenic viewpoints overlooking ancient terraced farms and almond groves.

Arriving in Tafraoute, you’ll be greeted by an awe-inspiring landscape of pink granite mountains, especially striking under the midday sun. Explore the laid-back town, known for its colorful painted rocks, unique geology, and rich Amazigh (Berber) culture. Visit local cooperatives selling handmade leather slippers, argan oil, and traditional crafts.

You’ll also have time to explore the surrounding area, including the iconic Painted Rocks—a surreal open-air art installation by Belgian artist Jean Vérame—and ancient granite formations shaped by centuries of wind and time.

Enjoy a traditional Moroccan lunch in a local restaurant, and soak in the peaceful, unspoiled atmosphere before your return journey to Agadir.
