Palm groves and earthen buildings shape Zagora and the surrounding valley. A short outing in the oasis offers a different view from the windscreen. Ask a local guide about paths and customs; homes and cultivated ground deserve as much care as the landscapes you came to photograph.

Plan local travel
Choose between town-centre accommodation and a stay in the oasis or Amezrou according to your transport. Ask whether dinner and breakfast can fit your plans. A dune excursion is a separate activity and provides no access rights to the race route.
