Gain a unique glimpse into the traditional rural life of Morocco on a guided excursion from Fes to the Berber village of Ahinajen in the breathtaking Atlas Mountains. Here, you’ll connect with local families of the regional tribe and learn firsthand about their way of life. Following a traditional lunch with the tribal leader, you’ll have the chance to interact with both farmers and shepherds.
