About this Adventure
Embark on an unforgettable photography adventure that reveals the soul of Southern Morocco—from the lively maze of Marrakech’s ancient medina to the golden dunes of the Sahara at sunrise. Immerse yourself in a kaleidoscope of color and culture as you capture bustling souks, Berber villages, and cinematic kasbahs, while staying in elegant riads that reflect Morocco’s warm hospitality. Along the way, you’ll float across the desert in a hot-air balloon, trace the vibrant history of Ouarzazate’s “Hollywood of Africa,” ride camels over ever-shifting sandscapes, and delve into off-the-beaten-path towns brimming with tradition. Whether composing images of palm-filled valleys in the Atlas Mountains or framing the Atlantic breezes of Essaouira’s port, each moment is enhanced by dedicated editing sessions and critiques, culminating in the creation of your personal photo book. Tantalizing Moroccan cuisine, from fragrant tagines to sweet dessert delicacies, complements this immersive workshop, ensuring a rich feast for both your lens and your senses.
